Great news!

1. Fencing practice will start this Friday. It will be between 4pm and 6pm on the 3rd floor basketball court of Helwell. See you there!

2. Some members of the fencing team, including our team president Taylor, will be at the Student Org fair tomorrow, August 27. Stop by to say hi and sign up if you're not on the team yet! If you're already part of the team, come keep Taylor company and recruit some new members!

3. Our most likely first tournament of the year, Chaos, is going to be at University of Maryland College Park on October 20th. Chaos is a tournament geared towards beginner fencers; however, it is also on Parents Weekend. Taylor encourages everyone to talk to your parents now (if they're coming) to try to work out your schedule to see if you can or cannot go to Chaos so that Taylor can know as soon as possible. The tournament is not mandatory or a "team" competition, so you will be competing individually if you choose to go. Taylor and hopefully the blade captains will be there.

Good luck on the first week of classes!

Chaos Changes, Gear, and Bake Sale

CHAOS
Men's and Women's epee and sabre - car
Women's foil - metro with joel, with a car ride outside the UMCP metro station

No need to worry - everyone still gets breakfast! If you need to leave early, email Rebecca. If not, everyone should stay to help breakdown and transport equipment.

If you need to get equipment, you must get it tomorrow (Saturday) since HellWell is closed on Sunday. You are responsible for your whites, socks, and mask.


If Rebecca is getting your equipment for you, you must come get it from her BEFORE Sunday morning because it's too heavy for her carry alone.

BAKE SALE
We always need more volunteers! Whether you want to work at the bake sale or bake something (or make someone bake for you), anything would be appreciated. If you'd like to volunteer, email Joel. Those who are volunteering (thanks, guys!), please meet at 10:15 am outside the Foggy Bottom metro to go with Joel.

Chaos and Bale Sale

Chaos is this Sunday! If you're going, meet outside of Hellwell at 7 am. The team leaves at 7:15 sharp. Don't forget to bring your white (jacket, underarm guard, knickers, socks, shoes) and mask. If you paid dues and don't have socks, email Rebecca to let her know.

Ready for another successful bake sale? The next one will be this Saturday, from 11 am to 2 pm. We still need people to run the table, help set up, and bake some food. Email Joel! For his email address, check Rebecca's recent email.
