STAFFED BY EXPERT COACHES WITH INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE
Founded in 2010 by Olympian, Olympic Coach, and U.S. Fencing Hall of Fame Member Dan Kellner, BBFC is more than a fencing club—it’s a community committed to excellence. Our positive, nurturing, and competitive atmosphere helps children develop both athletically and personally, preparing them for college and beyond.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Each camp week is Monday through Friday, 9am - 5pm each day. Early drop-off and late-pickup is available for an extra fee by request.
Location: If you haven't been to the club before, we're located at 68 Jay Street, between Front Street & Water Street. The entrance to the building is next to a large UPS drop box. BBFC is on the 5th floor, #508, all the way at the end of the hall and to the right when you get off of the elevator.
Please remember to send your child with a water bottle, lunch, and snacks, and/or money to buy food. We will be escorting those campers who need to buy lunch to the deli on the ground floor of the building.
Campers should wear shorts, a t-shirt, and sneakers, as well as bring sweatpants/leggings/fencing pants. We will be doing a lot of exercise, and proper, closed-toe sneakers are required. Campers will not be allowed to fence in shorts. (We have a limited number of fencing pants to borrow in case someone forgets proper attire.)
We will provide all necessary fencing equipment if you don’t have any. If you have your own equipment, please bring it! You are welcome to store it at the club for the duration of camp.
Feel free to bring any card games, board games, or books for our lunch break.
Please let us know of any allergies/medical conditions we should be aware of. Do not bring peanuts or peanut products to the club.
