Donation Opportunities for Individuals and Businesses
A fencing “piste” or strip, is the field of play for our sport. Each strip is 5 feet wide and 46 feet long. Generally, they are laid out side by side in a gymnasium or other large building. They are made of conductive material that allows for electronic scoring. We plan to build 14 strips within our club, and are offering local businesses the opportunity to sponsor a strip. Sponsors will have the opportunity to hang a 3ft x 3ft advertisement at the end of their strip, which will be visible to all visitors, competitors and spectators.
