Date notes: holidays, classes - 22 May 13

There will be no fencing Sunday, May 26, or Monday, May 27 due to the Memorial Day holiday.

Still looking for something to do this weekend? Come on out to the Virginia Renaissance Faire near Fredericksburg! This weekend is Military Appreciation weekend so active duty and retired service members get in free. For friends, family, and everyone else, it's just $9 (ages 5 and under are free). It's also Pirate Invasion weekend so grab your yo-ho-hos and cutlasses and come play!

Richmond's annual Tune Up Open is June 15-16. In addition to the open foil, epee, and saber events, there will also be Y12 and Y14 foil and epee events. Although I will not be available on Saturday, I will be there Sunday. (At least until I have to head back to Poquoson!)
