Didn't say you had to JOIN the SCA....just come by and see about playing with the fencers during practice. I know several local people that go to fencing or were going (until their child was born). It's a good bunch.
I'm SCAdian first then a ren-fan. This way I get my period fix but dont get wrapped up in the politics. Same for faire...I get my silly flirtiness fix without the drama of being solely in Faire circles.
Hey, if you wanted to give it a shot, but didn't want to do it solo, you might be able to drag me....
While I just tossed my fencing gear -- I figured that any equipment that was over 20 years old wasn't safe -- I'm sure I could make do with some loaner equipment to start.
Besides, I haven't had anything to do with the SCA in almost 4 years -- and barely nothing then. Might be good to be "dragged" to something new. I now know the politics ain't as bad as fannish ones *and* there are politics anywhere you have more than 2 people....
I only wonder if I'd know *anyone* there any more.
Oooh, oooh, me! me!!! *jumping up & down & waving hand*
I've always wanted to learn to fence. We'll have to talk about this. My home computer has crashed, so I'm limited to reading/writing only during lunch at work. I'll have to call you!!!!
