125 students and family members attended a Phantoms hockey game recently, cheering our home team on to a 5-3 victory over the Monarchs. The evening included a video performance with Dax at our TKD school, training for the big night, a one-hour demonstration before the game, a Dax board break on the ice, and a major board break between the first and second periods. It was a wild night for everyone. Thanks to your support, your booster club was able to raise $625 for charitable causes! Great job. Great school spirit. Thank you all.
Seven of our students attended the AAU regional qualifier (the pathway to Nationals) recently at HVCC. The results were impressive. Jesse Wells and Aidan MacDonald scored double gold (forms and sparring), while Tamsin MacDonald earned a silver in forms. Lexi Potter took gold in forms and bronze in sparring, and Lexie Meyer wond a gold in her forms division. Mark Dunbar garnered two silver medals, while Ron White won several hard-fought matches to take the gold in fighting! Wonderful job, each and every one of you. Thanks for supporting our school.
More than twenty of our black belts were able to attend our second annual Black Belt Appreciation Luncheon at Chinatown recently. In an effort to show our respect for their efforts to make GFTKD the place to practice Tae Kwon Do, we like to hold this little get-together yearly. Thanks to the thirty black belts who attend classes regularly and contribute their expertise and knowledge for the betterment of all students!
