This Grand Experiment

Here we stand near the end of another year at MFA. This year has been one of unprecedented growth. I'm going to take this opportunity to gloat.

Things we have now that we did not have last year:

-Consistent space and schedule
-Meeting more than once a week
-Students with medals to their names
-observed skill growth in all program participants
-increased exposure within the community
-increased acceptance as a sport among parents
-consistent youth tournaments
-increased parental involvement
-social activities outside of fencing at the club

Boo-yah.
