Camps

Come to the Northwest’s premier fencing club to learn about the Olympic Sport of fencing. These camps give young fencers a start in the sport through games and expert instruction.

Kids will learn safety rules, basic footwork, engard position, and fundamentals of the game. 

Our large gym is fully air-conditioned, with plenty of space to play, eat, learn, and make friends. Fencers from our Youth Classes are welcome to join, but no experience is necessary.

There are five camps offered: three in July and two in August. Go to the registration page and select the week you want your camper to attend. Those attending more than one week must register for each week separately. Those enrolling more than one camper can put the camp tickets in their shopping cart and pay only once.
