Committees
The club has several committees. Get to know them here!
Activity Committee
Don Quichote is more than just fencing. We are a close group where new members quickly feel at home. This is partly due to the Activities Committee. Because how much fun is it to do other activities together besides fencing? Think about karaoke, Christmas dinner, beer pong, song contest bingo, etc.
Do you have your own fun idea for an activity? Let us know!
Or would you like to join the team? You are most welcome to join us!
At the moment, the committee consists of:
– Elise
– Manon
– Okke
– Esmee
– Tijs (until January)
Weapon Committee
The Weapon Committee takes care of the club’s equipment, from body wires and weapons to jackets and our pistes. We teach you the skills every fencer needs!
Have you always dreamed of building your own weapon, or do you have a question? Sign up for the Weapon Committee or visit us in the RSC workshop!
