GATEWAY CHALLENGE (HEARTLAND CIRCUIT) ST. LOUIS 20-21st APRIL
Tuesday, April 23, 2013
Just received this via Terrell. Seems a good idea but the distances involved may be a problem. I remember from my UK experiences an inter club league although the maximum trip was around 20 miles!
Dear friends,
Currently in our fencing division, every fencing club is its own island, with no communication between the clubs. In order to build a strong fencing community, we must get to know each other, outside of tournaments (as tournaments can come from clubs outside our division). One suggestion is that each club chooses a month to make an open night for members of the other clubs to attend and fence with no floor fee. To encourage attendance to this event, if four clubs (including the host club)attend, a pool can be fenced, and the winner of the pool gets a prize from the division, which would be a gift card to one of the fencing companies (such as Absolute Fencing).
I hope to hear your thoughts on this matter.
Thank you,

This is a good idea, I also suggest that we do the annual division meeting and each club come up with its proposed tournament schedule. we can design a yearly schedule for the whole division, each club Representative can add his proposed tournament and discuss it with the other EC members, we can come up with great schedule with no conflicts, and better than each club decide to run event during the season and most of the time we have events conflicts

NEARLY THERE!
From the top, a general view of the block, cubicle wheelchair friendly, basin with mirror to follow, utility room with slop sink and water heater.
We await only the final fettling, the benches and coat hooks next week and the contractor walk thru.
An additional fencing strip is also in the works to compliment the second VSM scoring system.
