Savage Mill will be closed on Monday, August 31 
and Monday, September 7


SFC members, please be advised of the following information:
Savage Mill will be closed on Monday, August 31 so that the Mill can complete an emergency repair to the Mill’s main water system.  Of necessity, the club will also be closed as well.

According to Mill management, delaying this repair could result in excessive water pressure and potentially cause pipes or other plumbing components to fail.

To safely complete the replacement, the County will need to shut off all water to the Mill beginning at 6:00 a.m. on Monday, August 31. During the repair, there will be no running water or functioning restrooms, which means the property will need to remain closed for the day.

The Mill will reopen on Tuesday, September 1.

We will also be closed the following Monday, September 7, for the Labor Day holiday.

Saturday mornings, we offer two youth epee classes (from 9-10 a.m. for those ages approximately 8-10, and 10-11 a.m. for those approximately 10 and older), as well lessons offered by Coach Robert Suchorski.

Open bouting on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. is available to anybody, in all three weapons ($20 floor fee and releases required for non-members, no charge for anyone who is taking classes or lessons).

If you are interested in getting a taste of our sport, we also offer a free 30-minute introductory lesson, available either by appointment, or -- if you feeling adventuresome -- to walk-ins on Saturday mornings.

If you are using Google Maps or some other navigation system, the Mill's address is
8600 Foundry Street, Savage, 20763.

When you arrive, you will see a rather small parking lot on your left, down a decline.  You will also see a sign directing you to the Big Lot.  Follow that sign (going the full length of Foundry Street) to the Big Lot, and then park as close as you can to the Mill.  Once you enter the building, you will see (or hear) our club, directly downstairs and on your right.
