Fencing in Iny

[Jawfixer]

Anyone know of any fencing clubs in Indianapolis, Indiana?

Have you tried going to the USFA site (www.usfencing.org)? They have a directory/listing of clubs by division/state.

There's the Indianapolis Fencing Club, which meets at the Jewish Community Center near 71st St. The latest info on their outdated website says that there are classes Tue. 7:30-9:30, and practices Wed. 7:30-9:30 and Sat. 1:30-3:30pm.

From my brief visit last time I was home, the group is mostly made up of twenty/thirty-somethings, some of whom are pretty good at both fencing and teaching.

If you're going to be there the week spanning Christmas and New Year's, and they have practice, I might drop in -- gotta fulfill the family obligation.

If you're down south of Indy and can make the drive, there is the IU Fencing Club in Bloomington; it's also a recreational club, and a lot of fun, they also had some decent fencers a few years ago. (Although my standards have admittedly changed...)
