Class Photo: The Kagami Biraki class photos are available for pick up. The price is $13. We do have extra copies so it is not too late to purchase one. All funds raised from this class photo support our various activities throughout the year.
Kamp Kodomo Judo Demonstration: Once again this year during March Break, the JCCC is running its day camp, Kamp Kodomo. This year our Club will be giving a judo demonstration on Friday, March 14th at 10:00-11:00 am. All students are welcome to come out and help with the demonstration. This demonstration is a great opportunity to introduce judo to potential students. Please let me know if you are available to come out and help with the demonstration.
March Break: There are no class cancelations during March Break. It’s our regular schedule.
Judo Ontario Registration: Just a reminder that all students planning in competing in Judo Ontario sanctioned tournaments must be a member of Judo Ontario. Students can renew their membership or sign-up for membership via Judo Ontario’s online registration. Go to the Judo Ontario website (www.judoontario.ca) and click on the Website Registration tab. Registering at the website will allow you to renew your membership or join Judo Ontario. If you are have any questions, please feel free to ask me.
Used Judogis: If you have outgrown your judogi or have any unneeded judogis, then please donate them to our second hand judogi program. If you need a bigger judogi, check with me after class to see if we have a used judogi in stock. Our second hand judogi program is intended to help out those families whose children out-grow their judogis. A used judogi is much cheaper than a new judogi. This program works if people hand in their old judogis to the Club. Also you can donate any unneeded belts, white or coloured, to the Club.
Zoris: All students should wear zoris (slippers) whenever they are not on the mat, before and after class and during breaks. The Club has a number of zoris (slippers) in various sizes. They are available for the low, low price of $5. If you wish to buy your zoris, please see me after any class.
Newsletter via e-mail: Just a reminder if you have an e-mail account, you can receive our newsletter electronically. Just drop me an e-mail and I will make sure you get the newsletter every month.
If you have any questions regarding the information in this newsletter or need to contact any of the instructors, please contact me at our e-mail address .
