I would strongly suggest that we do the awards
banquet event on the 28th in conjunction with the meeting on the 28th
rather than having them on 2 separate weekends.
It was my understanding from the e-mail I
received that the meeting on the 28th was to be an FJI special
meeting to vote on new by laws that would be acceptable to USA Judo.
I fully agree that athletes should be recognized.
I was the first member and officer to make this proposal back in the late 1990
when we were not doing anything for the athletes. And I was the first on the
2003 executive committee to support Mr. Lopez’s resolution to provide
funding for the athletes.

It was approved my its members on December 3rd, 2005, to have a special meeting on January 21, 2006, in Central Florida to discuss all issues with Florida Judo Inc., and its bylaws in conjunction with the 2006 Junior Awards Luncheon, which will be held at Central Florida Judo and Jujitsu Dojo, 248 Hatteras Blvd., Clermont, Fl. and is being held by Bill Andreas. The special meeting will start at 1:00 pm and the Awards Luncheon will begin at 4:00 pm.
To Club Coaches & Officials:
I want to take this opportunity to
address this Awards Luncheon. I have agreed to host this event on short notice
here in
My dojo is open to any idea. I was asked
to host this event on the 21 of Jan / I am hosting the JFI event on the 28th.
If we could combine the two that would even be better for all. However to make
this happen. I will need to know who will be attending. We will be having a
catered event and I need to plan the food menu. If I need to cancel the 21 I
need to know by Monday. I need to request space for the meeting
& Awards.
John Fiege requested that we might hold a
workout for some of the Juniors afterwards. I have the mat and the
space My dojo is open for those that want to stay afterwards. E mail
below.
respectfully,
William E Andreas
Hello Bill,
I've just read David Ellis email and
would like to ask you a question. I would like to come to the meeting and
participate. Now I've also been looking for opportunities to have some of my
competition kids gain some experience with club meets.
Since we will probably have a good number
of clubs represented at the meeting do you think it might be a fun idea to have
a randori hour for kids?
My goal is to have a club meet once a
month for the central/north
I think this would help a lot in raising
the level of kids judo in our region and prepare them for competition with the
south
Once we've done the first club meet,
hopefully at the 28th, I think it will be easier to make it a regular thing.
Let me know what you think.
Sincerely,
John Fiege
Judo Ryu Jacksonville.
