Champagne Challenge this weekend

[Army Fencer]

At DCFC. Anyone going?

Saturday at 10 is epee.

Not sure yet.

Any clue how many people DCFC is sending to their own event in the three weapons?

Since they have upped the fees, are they going to hire refs?

What do you mean by "upped the fees"?

Entry fees are $20 this year, at least according to the Cap Div web page.

We'll have a lot of DCFC fencers for epee, but probably not as many in foil and sabre.

I doubt it.

Champagne Challenges take place in the Capitol Division, but they are not run by the Capitol Division itself--they are club tournaments run by DCFC (the DC Fencer's Club).

The Champagne Challenges USUALLY have the same entrance fees as division events, but I hadn't even heard that CapDiv had raised fees until I checked the website, so I wouldn't bet my life on it.
