Turkey Trot

Just returned from a mile walk here in Redford, to raise money for our Turkey Brigade. Every year around this time the students from Redford Karate School set out to feed more than 75 needy families right here in our southeastern Michigan community.

Last year we exceeded our goal and were proud to help so many less fortunate than us. The most important lesson we learn and get to experience is the sense of giving and helping others. Our young students get to see first hand that everyone does not have a full cupboard, nor do they have a large TV and gaming station in their living room.

Because our young students are encouraged to go with the adults to deliver the dinners to neighbor's doorsteps, the idea of commuunity service is nurtured in their hearts. Many of the students have reported how good it made them feel to give somehing to someone else.

This year the dinners will be delivered the week of November 23rd. We have room for lots of volunteers and, of course, any contributions are welcome and will be put to good use.

Thanks to all of those wonderful martial artists and their families for coming out today to walk with us. Redford Karate School families rock!!

Tang Soo!
