Club Clothing Order - April 2016

Hi all,

Club clothing order update - deadline to submit your order extended to Friday, April 22, 2016.

Note that this is for our general club logo. The T-shirt design contest will be a separate order, TBA later.

There will be a non-refundable 50% deposit due April 22nd. If you cannot drop off the deposit by April 22nd, let us know and we can try to figure out other alternatives. We will figure out taxes later but for now, just use the team price estimate. You can email us your order at fencingubc@gmail.com

When placing your order, please provide the item, catalog number, colour, size, quantity, type (men's or women's) and estimated total cost. Also provide your name and email address so we know how to contact you.

Cost of embroidery (3-colours) is the same as silk screen printing so we will opt for embroidery for track jackets, track pants, hoodies, sweat pants, socks and head bands.

Silk screen printing (2-colour) for cotton t-shirts (logo on chest area), stormtech wick-away polo t-shirts (front left chest area) and wick-away t-shirts (front left chest area).

As for head bands and socks, they will be white. I am not entirely sure how many colours they would let us order (depends on availability), but if we want to stick to the safe side: navy, black, white and grey (sweat pants) would be a safe bet.

Fencing Cancelled on Thursday, April 7, 2016 -- Meet up for dinner instead!

Hi everyone,

We unfortunately won't be having a practice tomorrow night (April 7th). Instead, anyone interested can check out the new Storm Crow Alehouse located on West Broadway & Fir Street (1619 West Broadway). Unfortunately they do not do bookings after 6:00 pm, but I spoke to their booking agent and he said he didn't think there would be a problem with us walking in. So let's say people meet there at 7:00 pm, we can wait in the bar if there are no tables ready. If people would like to go earlier, please keep in mind that groups are limited for 3 hour time periods.

See you all there!
