TOURNAMENT NOTES: Registration is capped at 25 fencers. All fencers and guests must either be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or provide a negative PCR or antigen test taken within 72 hours of the event. Test results must be from a lab. We are unable to accept at home / over the counter test results. Photos for all will be accepted We ask that no more than one guest per fencer attend to help us manage social distancing. All guests will be asked to watch the event from outside in the covered courtyard. The entire fencing floor can be seen from outside through our full wall of large windows. Guests may go inside during their fencer's DE bouts to support their fencer. We do have some folding chairs available but you may wish to bring your own more comfortable camp chair. Dress warmly as it can be cool outside. The courtyard area is covered and protected from rain. Fencers and their guest must wear a USA fencing approved mask at all times while at the tournament both inside and outside. The only exception is that fencers may lower their mask for a water break while stationary and at least 6 feet from others. Per USA Fencing, face coverings must be two-layer cloth masks or surgical face coverings. Single-layer gaiters, bandannas, masks with vents and inserts that clip into the fencing mask and do not fully contact the athlete's face are not permitted. Fencers and guests who arrive without an approved mask will be offered a surgical mask. This is a fully sanctioned USFA event.
