Directions to F.E.S.S.

Take I-40 east from Nashville, west from Knoxville to Exit 286 (there is a sign marking this as the Tennessee Tech exit). Then turn north (left if coming from Nashville, right if coming from Knoxville) and travel about 2 and 1/2 miles to Tech's main entrance (there's a brick sign). Turn right. Go straight to the second four-way intersection (on campus). Turn right again on Peachtree St. The Memorial Gym is the last building on the left (after you turn) visible from the intersection. It is adjacent to a fenced in basketball court.

From Chattanooga and points south, take your best route to Highway 111 (or to I-40, depending on your starting point). Take Highway 111 north till it intersects I-40. Turn left onto I-40 west (towards Nashville). Then follow the above directions as if coming from Knoxville.

If you come to one of our regular Sunday meetings, come to the front door of the gym so that we can see you. For security reasons we have to keep all of the gym doors locked now, so we have to let fencers in individually. If you don't see anyone, wait a few minutes and someone will appear to let you in. For scheduled tournaments, come the the doors at the fenced in basketball court (pictured below).
