Teaching Youth a Healthy Attitude Towards Life through the Sport of Fencing
Youth Fencing, Utah

Wasatch Fencing is a non-profit, all volunteer organization, which teaches a healthy attitude toward life, competition and respect for others through the sport of fencing. While we focus on helping youth build strong values, Wasatch Fencing provides the opportunity for people of all ages to learn the sport.

Wasatch Fencing has been teaching Olympic-style fencing since 1983. Along with having lots of fun, our fencers are considered to be among the best in Utah and in the nation. Previous members of Wasatch Fencing have gone on to fence for NCAA programs such as Duke and Stanford universities.

Donate to the "Tanner Holst Gold Fund"

Tanner HolstThe original Gold Fund was established in 1989 and has help dozens of financially challenged youth fencers train and participate in competitions at little or no cost to them. Funding comes from donations from individuals and businesses throughout northern Utah including many alumni who fenced at Wasatch Fencing during their youth. "It is more than fitting that our Gold Fund program carry Tanner's name," said club director Ron Hendricks. "As Tanner was always there to help fellow fencers out in any way he could."

Members were saddened by the unexpected passing of Tanner Holst on January 23 of 2009. Tanner had been an active member of our club for 5 years and had progressed to being one of the top junior fencers in the state. More importantly, Tanner brought joy into the lives of everyone who had the opportunity to know him.

If you are interested in donating to the Tanner Holst Gold Fund, please contact Ron at ron@wasatchfencing.org
