Hey folks, Fencing.net has come up with another cool idea. The goal is to make a Google Maps display of fencing clubs in the US (World?) so that people can look at the map and see where the closest place for them to fence is. Anyway, in order for this to work they need a list of clubs with their actual locations, not PO Boxes or apartment numbers. I figured if this board worked together on it we could get our area covered first, and show how Southwest fencing leads the way. Here's the list of SWS Clubs, according to the website: www.southwestfencing.org/Perls/contactsDb2html.phpHere's what the product will look like: www.fencing.net/component/option,com_google_maps/Itemid,95/ So, anybody know the addresses of some clubs and is willing to help out?

I know MTD and Maupin & I can organize the Gulf Coast material.
USFA only or others, too (classical, eastern etc)?

It would be nice if the South Texas Division had a club list. For example, the USFA website has a lot of clubs not listed that are on the section website, so I don't know how accurate either is.

The SWS information from our club Salle Pouj needs to be updated to reflect that:
Neil Mittal is our head coach

Craig wants not just USFA member clubs, but all "sport fencing facilities" - so eastern and classical are out. See the forum to get a better idea.

My bad. The SWS information from our club Salle Pouj needs to be updated to reflect that: Neil Mittal is our head coach Hmm... I'd suggest emailing that to the webmaster or Section Secretary, I guess. How many of those clubs on that site are still around?
