Where does the time go?!?

Well, another couple of months have passed. With the number of events that have been going on lately, it's no wonder that we lose track of time.
We've had two black belt gradings lately, a club grading, a number of tournaments and seminars, and basically a whole lot of fun. Now summer's almost here (only seven days of school left for the elementary kids as I write this) and it's time to play.
We started off with a Hide N' Seek night at the Nitschmann's which was tons of fun. We had a great bonfire, roasted marshmallows and played hide n' seek in the dark! Wanna feel invisible? Just hold really still and watch people walk right past you on the path! Then try your luck running to home base, knowing full well it will be well guarded. Or you could try Tori's technique of crawling on your belly all the way there - she wasn't detected at all until someone tripped on her!
We plan on starting up ball hockey soon, that's always a lot of fun. What a workout! And the trash talk ....and the nick names....well, you have to see it to believe it!
Time to head outside with families to enjoy the summer air (well, somedays) and enjoy our karate training without worrying about snow covered roads to get there!
For all of our students who will be away this summer: Play safe and we'll see you back in September!
