Fencing Center (new Member)
The Fencing Center of Chicago is hosting its Grand Opening ceremony this Sunday, March 20th, from 3pm-6pm!
111 S. Washington Ave, PR
I would love to spread the word to the Park Ridge community and hope that everyone who is interested in the sport of fencing could come out and visit our new facility as well as see some live fencing in action (we will be hosting a competition prior to the grand opening ceremony, so anyone who comes a littler earlier will be able to see the final rounds of our first annual FCC tournament with some of the best fencers in the Midwest!)
