August Newsletter

The good news this month is that the website was repaired.  For the technical people, the server extensions became corrupt and corrupted some of my files on the server.  I had to backup, re-load, and repair the entire site.  During the restoration, I lost the original August Newsletter so this newsletter is going to be brief.  For the non-technical people, the web site broke really bad.  I fixed the web site, but lost my August newsletter.

Let the summer games begin!  Our school is teaming with USA Taekwondo to host Summer Games.  The competition is scheduled to start at 9 am on Saturday, August 19th.  This is a mini tournament for our juniors (up to age 17).  The tournament includes breaking, forms, and sparring.  The tournament cost is $25 and is great fun.  Participates will receive a t-shirt and winners will receive metals.  Last year, everyone that participate had a really good time and it is a great introduction to tournament competitions.

 

Hope to see you there.
