Summit City Fencing Club — Fort Wayne, Indiana

Just a reminder that there is no practice tonight (Wed, 5/23) because of another school activity in the gym. We will be meeting at Brad’s house at 7:00 PM for an armory review and repair session instead. Swing by tonight if you want to work on weapons! Normal session tomorrow (Thu), it will be the last chance to practice before the tournament on Saturday at Zion Lutheran Church!

Don’t forget that the final tournament of the 2011-12 season is this coming Saturday! Sign up now!!!

The SCFC will be having a potluck dinner before the big meeting and elections on Monday, May 21!  We will be at the Canterbury Lower School as usual, things will kick off about 6:00 PM. If you are bringing something, please leave a comment below!

NOTE: The club still has plates, napkins, etc, from previous parties. All we need people to bring is food!

Be aware that families are welcome to attend the potluck dinner, but the actual meeting is limited to the current members and to the parents of fencers who are minors.  Special guests may also be invited by the current Board to take part or observe, such as a Canterbury faculty member or someone from Neighborhood Connection.

The next Casual night will be on Wednesday, May 30.  Feel free to invite family or friends to check things out!

Due to a school function in the gym, there will be no practice on Monday, April 30. Hope to see our fencers at practice on Wed and/or Thu!

Due to the annual Book Fair in the school gym, practice is canceled on Wed (4/18). On Thu (4/19), the fencers will meet at the school, but will practice in a room called the EDC. A note will be left on the usual door with more details for when SCFC members arrive. We apologize for any confusion!

We will plan to have practice on Monday and Wednesday this week, but not on Thursday (April 5). There will be no Conditioning tomorrow, doors should be open a few minutes before 7 PM on Mon and Wed.

Casual practice times are now scheduled for April 11 and 25. Anyone can come at 7 PM to get a brief introduction to the sport and try it out for $5 on those nights!

No practice tonight (Mon, 3/26), but we will be at Canterbury on Wed and Thu. Wed, 3/28, will be our other Casual night in March. Thanks to everyone who helped out at the tournament, you can see the results at this link!

Intro to Fencing classes will be taking a brief hiatus after the current round ends next week, March 27. We hope to have those scheduled by the middle of May, if not sooner. People who are interested in the sport are still welcome to come to Canterbury on Casual Nights to try it out and ask questions!

Officers meeting for tomorrow has been postponed, it has now been rescheduled for next Fri, 3/23, at 10:30 AM. This will be held at the main library.

March 14 and 28 will be the Casual nights this month, both are Wednesdays. Just show up at 7 PM and fence after dressing properly and stretching a bit! You can pay the $5 floor fee if you are not a current member of the SCFC. (There may be an additional fee to use club equipment if you need to borrow something. Minors must have a parent or guardian sign off on the paperwork.)
