Things to Note:
The Charlotte North American Cup
Although nobody is competing, Coach Gerhard will be traveling to Charlotte, probably on Saturday, January 4, 2020. This is a good opportunity to watch some REALLY good fencing. If you have an opportunity to watch a National Finals Bout, they are set up really nice. Also, MANY equipment vendors will be there, including printers. If you want/need to purchase equipment, want to try it on, browse what they have available, or get your name printed on your jacket, knickers, or lame. Charlotte will be the place to do it. There is a spectator/visitor entry fee. If you have a competitive membership, no fee is required, make sure you show your USA Fencing membership. Otherwise, it is a $5 per day entree fee.
