Last Fencing Session - Yankee Swap and Pies!
The end of the semester is here so for our last session there will be a "Yankee swap" at the AJ afterwards. What you'll need to do is bring a gift worth about £2, wrap it up and put it in the pile; everyone then gets a present out of the pile with the option to swap it with one already picked by someone else. Try and find something fun, wacky or just completely ridiculous to put in the pile.
There will also be mince pies and cakes provided byth committee and if you would like to add to the stocks it would be much appreciated.
We would definitely recommend continuing fencing over the Christmas period. If you'd like to ask any questions about clubs local to you or buying kit this would be the time
Apart from that have a great Christmas guys and we'll see you after then holidays!
