Oh, beautiful! Does anyone have the rights to the first photo? Can I put it up on the wall of DCFC? It’s a non profit if that makes a difference…
The photo is from the AP and they do have reprint options.
Found another mention – shows Obama being the referee: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8260209.stm
Congratulations Tim on meeting the President. Very cool!
I saw your tweet that you are in StL. We have several Scout fencers in Millstadt, just across the river. They will be in school on Friday but if you are doing any appearances on Saturday, I’d like to let them know.
Keep up the great work publicizing fencing!
