CFFA update for August 25

CFFA update for August 25
A big thanks to Herman for cleaning the the fencing room and washing jackets.  Thanks to Kenyatta and Mike for keeping reels and weapons working.  Thanks to Brendan for keeping overheads going.  It almost looks like a fencing club is getting ready to get into high gear. 

Regular fencing Tuesday and Thursday.  No
Camp Lejeune practice on the 30th due to the Labor Day weekend.  I am going to try to get out of here for a weekend before it all goes crazy, so I won’t be in for Saturday.  I will let you know if it looks like anyone else will be opening up.

I will be gone on Tuesday night, September 3rd.  The club will be open, but no class.  I should be back for practice on the 5th, but it isn’t guaranteed.  I will keep you updated.  On Friday, September 6th, fencing will be restarting in Pender County at Surf City middle school from 3-4 pm.  Camp Lejeune will meet at the regular times that evening.

Looking
forward, The next evening class will be a Monday/Wednesday one.  It will
start on the Monday after Labor Day, (September 9th) 6:30 pm.  Afterschool fencing will start
back up on that date at 3:30 pm.  Homeschool Fencing will start
Wednesday the 11th, 1:00 pm for returners; 1:30 pm for beginners.    I don’t know yet when the
UNCW fencers will be back for Wednesday nights.
No sanctioned fencing any closer than Baltimore over the Labor Day weekend.  Check askfred if you are interested.

Maryland
Division schedule is not up yet and Homeschool league has not met to
set their schedule.  We asked for our first event to be on September 21
with mixed open foil, mixed open epee, and a Div III (D and under
epee).  I will keep you posted.

pax vobiscum,

Greg Spahr
