| Hi!
Hello!
I'm new to this forum. I found it while browsing through Goolge for a possible summer camp and thought why not join? 
Anyway, I've been fencing for almost two years now. I participated in three tournaments and won twice the third place ^^ (Both times was at the same tournament a Debuntanten toernooi in Sint-Truiden, Belgium, tournament for beginners).
Further, I'm from The Netherlands, 16 years old, female and you can call me Joossie if you like. If you have any questions just ask them ^^

Welcome to the forum. | I'm sorry but I don't, I live in the very south-east of The Netherlands so I don't really know if there are any good clubs in the north or south-west. | |

Do you speak Limburgish? I am learning about your country because I am applying a job over there right now. Applied few days ago, then you signed up on the forum... I am taking it as a sign...

| Oh, mercy
My mom is dutch and I know pitifully little about the country of her birth. She fenced, but not until she was in the states... just a college thing.
By the way, I go both ways... I teach a foil class, but fence/fenced epee. I was in an epee club, so it was a matter of opportunity, but my heart is in foil. | |

R- | Will do, if I get that job (opening posted on June 11th, talked to the regional resource leader in person on 19th, applied on 23rd (close to mid-night), and it no longer accepts submissions on the 24th... no sure it's good or bad...)
Good luck next Tuesday.

Because everywhere there is a different kind of Limburgs spoken :P

| Thank you. But I am still waiting for a real reply (schedule interview, etc.); another email yesterday telling me to wait few more weeks for "the process" to work. Slow corp. bureaucracy.
