December Schedule, Christmas Party, and Updates
First, good luck to all fencers competing in the next two weekends.
A short word about the Myrtle Beach event. Even if you are not competing and you need a reason to go to Myrtle Beach, other than cheering on your teammates, if you have been looking at purchasing equipment, or you need to update or add to your kit, Absolute Fencing Gear (https://www.absolutefencinggear.com) will be on site. So if you like to try on your equipment or uniform before purchasing, there would be a good place to do so. Your next opportunity for multiple fencing equipment suppliers you can shop from will be in February during the 2024 Fencing Junior Olympics and North American Cup in Charlotte, NC.
