On 6 May 2012 Penrith with host their annual three weapon event. It is a competition that pits teams of three, one participant in each weapon, against other teams.
Mountains Fencing Club will be sending two teams, and we would welcome support.
It kicks off at 9am at Penrith Fencing Academy, located at Unit 5, 49-51 Regentville Road,
Jamieson Town (near Penrith).
Thanks to everyone who joined us for the beginners course, some of you did not make all the classes, but we hope you all got something out of the course. Please remember that all the equipment you borrowed for the course needs to be returned next Monday night (07-05-2012). Please make sure the underplastron and jacket are washed and the mask has been left out to air for a few days.
If you wish to continue fencing membership for the rest of the calendar year is $100, this is for two training nights a week (Monday and Thursdays).
See you all next Monday.
Just a reminder the club will be closed Easter Monday. See you all the following Monday!
The latest NSWFA newsletter is attached for your edification. Sabre deal down the bottom of the newsletter for those proper fencers.
As it is the start of the year, club memberships are due, and it would help your club if we could have all payments in by the middle of March. We would also like to safety check any club equipment you have so bring it along.
Please go to http://mountainsfencing.com.au/?page_id=399 and download the membership form, fill it out and bring it in with you.
Even if you are not ready to get back to training just yet please remember all memberships are due at the start of the calender year. So make your payments and jump back in when you can on either Mondays or Thursdays. If you have decided not to fence with MFC we will need any borrowed gear washed and returned by the end of March.
Don’t stay away too long or you will forget how much fun you had the last time you fenced.
We’ll see you on Mondays and Thursdays.
