Summer doldrums...
It is the summer doldrums...no weekly fencing, no interaction with students to brighten my Thursday nights.
I have been working with a supplier to get official GMAU Fencing patches. I just need to raise about $100.00 capital to place the first order. So, if anyone wants to donate...
Summer is a good time to work on your footwork and conditioning. Skipping rope for at least 5 minutes per day will help a lot. Doing ten lunges per day. Running for endurance.
See you all soon, I hope!

Congratulations!
Congratulations to our GMAU Fencers Alex Ganahl, Drew Myers, and Andrew for their performance in the Purdue Spring Open épée tournament on January 31. All three made it to the second round or direct elimination, and had some well-fought bouts.
Congratulations, too, to our friends at Indianapolis Fencing Club who had three fencers in the top six places for the épée tournament, and the winner of the foil event.

Happy birthday, Rosie!
Today is Rosie Lyons' birthday. Everyone make sure to wish her a happy birthday!
I had a great trip to Mexico City for work, although I missed the fencing. I was able to visit the Castle of Chapultepec, where the U.S. Marines earned the blood stripe they wear on their dress uniforms.

I also visited Teotihuacan and climbed the Pyramid of the Sun (world's third-largest pyramid), the Pyramid of the Moon, and the small pyramid of Quetzlcoatl. It was very interesting to stand on something built in the second century A.D., and to see artifacts I had only read about in books.
I had opportunity to witness to several folks, and hopefully planted some seed that will bear fruit some day.
