    Summer fencing workshops

    There's no fencing in my area and I am looking to return to the sport and would like to find a 1-2 week workshop. Does anyone know of summer fencing training workshops offered this coming summer. I know that Cornell Univ. used to offer one many years ago. But there must be others. Thank you.

    By the way, am currently reading "By the Sword". Pretty good so far.

    there are dozens. google fencing camps. i have done the ones at brown university and the north atlantic section one, which is usually at brandeis. both are good... ones at penn and colorado have a higher level of fencing, but for beginners it shouldn't matter.

    Escrime du Lac down in South Bend has camps every summer, but I don't know if they're more focused for juniors.

    I've never seen a camp for vets though. The sport is very geared for youth thru juniors, and some attention is paid to senior ranks, but after age 35, "for-get-about-it".

    Anyone know of a vet camp other than one that might happen once a year for the Vet Team?
