the Hartford Courant!! http://articles.courant.com/2013-01-25/community/hcrs-70101hc-statewide-20130117_1_foil-fencers-introductory-class
And since the article was published, FVFA Alum Cody R. (now a Senior)
received a 4-year fencing scholarship to join NCAA's Division 1 Epee Fencing team at Sacred Heart U. in Fairfield, CT (http://www.sacredheartpioneers.com/sports/m-fenc/2014-15/bios/richard_cody_a72e) and FVFA Alum Hannah B. of West Hartford is fencing on NYU's NCAA Fencing Team! Another great reason to have your
child try fencing... if they end up loving it, you never know what good things might come!
~ Upcoming Beginner Session (8-week courses for children
10+ and adults with no fencing experience): All beginner sessions currently in progress. E-mail me at
FVFA@comcast.net for details and forms and to be added to FVFA's contact list to be notified when enrollment opens for future
beginner sessions for children 10+ and adults. At FVFA we have one of the
best fencing programs in the State of Connecticut, so let me assure you it's worth the wait for a new session--fencing should
be fun and exciting, not boring and tedious! Start
your fencing journey TODAY at FVFA!
