Dear Hanshi, Kyoshi (times 3), Sensei, Sempai, and other Deshi,
Here are two attached flyers for the Nov. 1-2 (Northeast Dojo Celebration) karate weekend at State College, PA.:
(1) Schedule of events: This flyer describes what we have planned thus far. The formal part of the weekend begins with the workout on
Saturday, Nov. 1st at 1:00 p.m. However, you’ll notice there are several quite interesting things to do if you choose to arrive on Friday night (Oct. 31
st). [These are “on your own” activity ideas. For more information, see:
http://www.happyvalley.com/.]
(2) A list of attendees: This is a preliminary list of those who have expressed an interest in attending. [My apologies if I missed anyone.] Please take a look, and if you plan to attend, send me a note on the nights for which you need hotel accommodations. I will then e-mail you back with info on your hotel (we have rooms in 4 different hotels reserved). If you have a preference for hotel, please let me know that as well.
Since we need to know the number of participants for several of our planned events, please let me know by Sunday, Oct. 24th if you are planning to attend, the number of people in your party, and the which nights you plan to stay at a hotel.
We look forward to training with you.
Sincerely,
Matt Kaplan, Shihan
