End of the Year Dinner

From Jo:

"We are starting a new tradition this year. I am personally very proud and amazed with how the team grew and prospered this year and thus I want to an end of the year dinner/ party. It will consist of food, drinks, merriment, bonding and team awards.

It will be held on Friday April 29th at a TBA location and time. If we have serious problems with the date let me know ASAP.

We will giving out three awards:
MVP- A fencer who has shown dedication, leadership and skill
The Spirit Bear- A fencer who has shown dedication, enthusiasm and excitement in supporting the team
Most Improved- A First Year fencer who has grown and developed his or her skills considerably

GAG GIFTS:
I am putting underclassmen in charge of gag gifts. These are joking (not mean) awards for your team mates. Not everyone needs to receive a gag gift and I would like the underclassmen to work together/ in small groups to figure this out. Gag gifts can go to anyone on the team, but try and keep them a surprise for that person."
