IWFC class dates have been set through the end of the year:
* Beginner class start dates: September 8, October 4, November 1, November 29.
* Intermediate class start dates: September 7, October 5, November 2. (No December class is planned at this time.)
The details of the classes are unchanged. Both classes are $60 and are open to fencers aged 10 and up.
* The beginner class is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings from 6:00 to 7:00. It's ten sessions long. Equipment can be purchased or rented.
* The intermediate class is Tuesday and Friday evenings from 7:00 to 8:00. It's eight sessions long. The class fee includes dues for that month. Equipment can be purchased or rented if you don't have your own yet.
You can register either via phone (238-3111) or email. Let me know the fencer's first and last name and if equipment will be rented or purchased. We'll take care of sizing, payment, etc. as part of the first day of each class.
PFC class dates will be announced soon! I will tell you that they'll start in October. As soon as PPR publishes the fall schedule, I'll let you know the exact date! As always all registrations go through Poquoson Parks and Rec for these classes.
Equipment order! August is tearing by which means we're coming up on the September equipment order already. Orders and payment are due to me by 10 p.m. Wednesday, September 1. You can give them to me in person at any club session or online, whichever works best for you. Check out Absolute's shiny new website when you get a chance! And if you have any questions about equipment, pricing, etc., just let me know.
USFA membership - quick clarification: When you visit the membership link from the last update, be aware that the rates listed below the 'Benefits of Individual Membership' section are the club rates, not the individual rates. (They're what I pay for us, not what you pay.) The individual and family memberships start at $40 and are listed in detail on the membership form and when you get into the registration screen. (They probably don't list them in detail on the main page for the same reason I'm not doing it here - there are several different options and I don't want to confuse anyone!)
