Congrats to Stephen for taking second in the Commonwealth Games mixed epee last weekend! Scott took ninth in the foil and Stephen was also part of the fourth-place epee team. Great job, guys!
For those going to the Ronin Fencing Foundation Ratings Rally in Manassas this weekend, remember that they will be checking bodycords and lamés before the event. This will begin at 8:15 on both days. Make sure you plan to arrive with enough time to both check in and get your gear checked! Don't forget to pre-register if you haven't already done so!
Event - registration closing time - number of entrants as of 4:00 p.m. today (Thursday):
Saturday:
Unrated mixed foil - 9:30 - 24

I will be there all day Saturday and until noon or so on Sunday (have to leave then to make it back for Poquoson's classes and club session).
Up next, CFA's Annual Back to School Brawl in Charlottesville August 25-26. The entry fee is $25 if you preregister, $50 if you don't so don't forget! Prizes are awesome swords and knives (podium finishers may choose a Division medal in lieu of a pointy object).
