    Upstate NY

    Hey, I like in upstate/central NY and I was wondering if anyone who fences at a club by me can tell me how to start? I looked at the club listings and there was no way to get in touch with the listed ones because either the website is out or they won't respond to my e-mails. If anyone can tell me about any places to fence that are near Syracuse NY I would really appreciate it! Thank you- Marie

    Marie,

    From the <a href="http://www.usfencing.org" target="_blank">www.usfencing.org</a> website:

    Onondaga Fencers Club Chris Cummings
    186 Hopper Rd
    Syracuse, NY 13207-2709
    <a href="http://sport.syracuse.com/sport/onfencers" target="_blank">http://sport.syracuse.com/sport/onfencers</a>

    Their website worked 15 seconds ago.

    Marie,
    A better person to contact for Onondaga Fencers Club would be April Koich. She's the division treasurer for Western NY and will probably get back to you faster than Chris -- her email address is on the Western NY website: <a href="http://wny.rochesterfencing.com" target="_blank">http://wny.rochesterfencing.com</a>.

    Depending upon exactly where you are you might wnat to check out the events calendar for the Hudson Berkshire Division (http://www.hudsonberkshire.com/) as well. Some of the events (such as those at FMCC & RPI) are close enough to draw people from the Western NY Division.


    Darius, are you bringing a group out for the Open this year? This year we have the entire floor of the Armory again so ping pong people to get in the way.

    Damn, I liked the ping-pong people. I ended up with some great action photography of that 10-year old girl slaughtering everybody.

    I'll be there fencing foil and sabre, and I assume there'll be 5-10 U of Rochester fencers showing up.
