    Where to start fencing?

    I live in Gulf Breeze, Florida and I need to find a good club or place to get lessons around here. I tried UWF fencing club but apparently they dont have it anymore. anybody know of a place around Pensacola that I could learn to fence?

    A good place to start is the USFA website www.usfencing.org under "Info for Members". Good luck

    Have you thought of crossing over the border. Mobile is about 60 miles.

    Parents won't drive him 60 miles to fence?

    He needs new parents.
