Dear Hutt Valley Fencing Club members,

Welcome back to fencing for 2018! We hope you all had a fantastic summer break, and are raring to get back to training.

We have a great year ahead, with many opportunities for training and competing, so make sure to keep an ear out for opportunities as they are announced throughout the year.

We are pleased to announce that the club will be returning to the full training schedule this week, beginning on Tuesday, 30th January.

After the planning meeting last week, the committee is implementing some exciting changes, with more to come during the year. These aim to improve the fencing experience for all members and enhance the club culture.

In order to ensure that all club members receive communications in a timely and consistent manner, we will be making further use of the new mailing put in place last year. In the coming weeks, you may receive an email requesting that you confirm a subscription to the website mailing list. Please ensure that you confirm this so that you continue to receive club communications and updates.

Announcements will be available on the website home page (https://huttvalleyfencing.org), sent to your email, and on the Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/huttvalleyfencing/).

We are looking forward to another successful and fun year of fencing for all!
