| Fencing Classes forming! |
We have started a competition fencing (foil only) classes for kids 8-12 years of age on Thursday's at 5pm! (Nearly Full!)
Ann Arbor has no options for younger fans of Olympic-style competitive fencing and as my own coach once said in my hearing when I was 11, "if only I had gotten him when he was eight!" Now, I'm no Yuri Rabinovich who was my Maestro when I was young but I did take a minor national title and studied limitedly under Greg Benko & Gill Pezza both NCAA champions in the late 1970's |

- To use my children's parlance, "Gi-normous thanks to Diane Miller for her gift to Maestro of The Ballad of the Ring of Steel. She has captured us too well and like Dorian Grey, I find the portrait has not changed in many a year! Now if only the gray hair would do the same!
