One of my New Year’s Resolutions is to keep a better Fencing Journal. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my skill and understanding of fencing when I have dedicated myself to it and I believe it’s a tool everyone should consider.
Within the group, we have the option of choosing the name we will be known by. Overtime, it becomes a part of who we are. Why did you choose your fencing name and what does it mean to you?
The new year is a time for reflecting on the year that’s behind us, but it’s also a time for us to look forward to the 365 days to come. What do we want to accomplish this year?
This challenge is meant to help you work on very basic fencing skills for 100 days. That’s just enough time before the fencing season starts again. Simply mark off each day you complete the exercise which will progressively get more and more challenging as time goes on.
Tilly’s Mess Before the Dress! Paint waterslide with a paint war after, Cheeto throwing contest, donut eating contest, fire breathing, making goo and spear the beer! Thanks to everyone who could come! It was a delightful mess!
Sometimes it’s too cold to dance outside, so we were lucky enough to hold a dance indoors! What fun to see everyone’s awesome masks and costumes.
I can’t exactly remember the theme of this particular Woodland War. I do remember that we had some of it down in the Lower Field and we had quite the turn out for the Woodland Cup Tournament.
Check out these awesome snapshots from a couple of practices in August of 2016. See anyone you recognize or cool moments?
Any man or woman, regardless of wealth or background can join the Order of the Rose, provided they are honorable, brave, and have the will to fight the good fight, no matter how difficult or treacherous it is.
Mess Before the Dress Bachelorette Party. Messy Twister, powder bombs, making oobleck, and Spear the Beer while in the rain!
You can tell a man just like you can a sword, you know. Some are bathed in jewels and gold, but have never seen hardship or toil. They easily break when put under pressure. A strong one does not need glamour or intricacies; they let their strength and deeds speak for themselves.
From fighting pirates and dueling, to tea on the lawn and dancing, Steamfest was a blast! Many thanks to everyone who worked so hard to put this together!!
