Where Does The Time Go?
I can't believe this many days have passed since my last blog. Redford karate has been very busy with lots of fun events such as our in-school tournament that was a huge success. Mr. Alan Johnston was our Grand Champion in the Forms division!
We also have welcomed quite a few new students to our karate school this summer. It is so nice to see new faces and meet new people. Karate is one of the only activities that families can participate in together. We have many families that train together and will eventually all receive their Black Belt together. What an accomplishment!
The Summer Day Campers had a great time earlier this month with their "Sports Academy" theme. We played baseball. kickball. racquetball, four square, jump rope, and many other sports games. We even made a craft for our bedroom doors in a sports theme. Our next Summer day Camp will be on Tuesday, July 21st when we will be learning about Orienteering. Sounds like fun.
Our Gladiator Tournament is this weekend. We can't wait! We will all get together at Bell Creek Park here in Redford and joust inside an inflatable ring for cool trophies. Afterwards, we will stay around and have our summer bar b q and maybe even play horse shoes or ladder golf. Hope everyone can make it!
