See everyone at practice tonight.

Also we’re planning to have a weapon repair session Sunday Afternoon January 21st. Save the date, more details will be added to this post later.

REMINDER. The club will not meet tonight or next wed for beginner classes or open fencing due to our location being closed. Next week our location is also closed. The club and beginner classes will next meet on Wed, January 3rd, 2018.

USA fencing non-competitive membership link is below. Non-competitive or better is a club requirement for all members and those starting beginner classes this month.   See everyone tonight!

Tonight is the first class of our winter Beginner Class. We’re expecting a pretty full house, so if you haven’t already called, emailed or spoken to me to RSVP, I’m afraid you will need to wait until our next session. Next Chance for beginners to start is on Wed, March 7th.

Note that we are located in North Asheville off Merriman / Beaverdam.

There will be no practice the Wed before thanksgiving, November 22nd.   Practice will resume the following week, 11/29.

See everyone tonight!

Practice Tonight! (9/13) All fencers, new and experienced, please make sure you have a current non-competitive USA fencing membership. https://member.usfencing.org/

Registration is now CLOSED for our beginner class starting tomorrow. If you’ve already communicated with one of the coaches
(Todd Wilson or Bren McAneny) you’re all set. If you haven’t reached out to us before now to confirm you’re coming, our next chance for beginners to start will be Wed 12/6. If you show up tomorrow without having contacted us before the deadline, we may have to turn you away due lack of gym capacity. Asheville Catholic students will be given priority.

Our next beginner class starts Wed, September 6th.

Full info is available here:  http://www.fencingclubasheville.com/beginner-classes/

Spots for the Sept 6th class will be limited because our gym is only so large.   Please RSVP by emailing FencingClubAsheville@gmail.com with the name and age of the student enrolling, if you haven’t already done so.

Nobody who RSVPs will be turned away, but we may turn walk-ins away if we can’t safely squeeze them into the gym.

 

Hey, practice is BACK ON tonight. See everyone there! Also, this is a reminder that USA Fencing memberships are due for renewal. Get your membership renewed ASAP before we start checking at practice. Non-competitive ($10) at a minimum is required for all fencers at the club either at open fencing or beginner class.

Link to renew is here:  https://member.usfencing.org/

Practice for today, 8/2, is cancelled due to issues at our location.  We will resume as normal next wed.
