Hello California! Hello, My dear and adoring public. I just moved to southern California, and there's no place to fence. Helllllppppp! What should I do?

I am sure you are joking. Besides to New York City, there is more and stonger fencing than almost anywhere else in the US. Donald Hollis Clinton, Jr. DHCJr@juno.com

Take up foil or epee?

Max,
Southern California's a big place. Where, exactly?
Go to the USFA website and click on the "Where to Fence" link. We have a number of clubs and venues in the LosOrangeDiego area.
Perhaps one day, you and I will cross blades in Long Beach. Unless you're one of those benighted beings who fences epee or sabre [/obligatory slam at other two weapons] "Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never . . . never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense."

Foil is okay, but swords are not supposed to bend! It's not natural. That said, prepare to die! Fwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha-cough, cough. haha.

P.s., what's the website?

The USFA website is USFA
Then click the link to Info for Members, then the link to Where Can I Fence? "Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never . . . never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense." Churchill, 1941

Or just click above 'Fencing Clubs'. The above link only breaks down the list by State. Donald Hollis Clinton, Jr. DHCJr@juno.com

Yeah - I live in SoCal, and I know of at least 3 or 4 places to fence (admittedly, 3 of them are different locations for the same club, but hey- fencing is fencing.)
If you are in (or near) the inland empire (San Bernardino/Riverside counties) check out :Salle MacBean Chiswick, fresh horses! We ride at once to rebellious Stoke where it is my sworn intent to approach the city walls, bare my broad buttocks, and shout "Behold! I honor thee most highly!"

I'm 3 hours down a bike trail from Ventura. If I told you any more, I'd have to kill ya.
