Welcome

And we're into the last month of another summer schedule. Parents are starting to prepare back-to-school plans while the kids are in denial about the summer ending. We're looking forward to September and have planned a slew of funraising activities for Justin Lentaigne's Pam Am adventure in Chile this September. So, read on and consider attending one of the fundraisers and have a good time while supporting one of our finest karate athletes.

Fall Schedules

the Fall schedules are up. For times, check the corresponding programs. Fall schedules also means that full Gi (uniform) is required after Labour Day. Kids oftens go through growth spurts over the summer, so make sure to check if the Gi fits. New Gi's can be purchased at the office and don't forget to pick-up a club crest to show your pride.

Congratulations
