Members and Instructors,

I am glad to announce the successful addition of tae kwon do to the martial arts club! Jin Kang, Grant Murphy, and Jacob Arbital will be instructing tae kwon do on Thursday from 6:30-8:00pm and Friday from 5:00-6:30pm in studio 10 of the TREC. All instructors are UT students with at least 7 years of experience each and all have belts ranging from 1st to 3rd degree in rank. We have not had an operating tkd for a couple years so please show your support and welcome our new instructors!

This coming Saturday and Sunday is the highly anticipated 2010 21st Southeastern US Kendo Federation Championship and Promotional! This will be occurring October 2nd (7:30am-7:30pm) and October 3rd (8am-12:30pm). We will be needing five volunteers during these days to help keep times and run errands. Also, the set up for the tournament will be October 1st at 6:00pm (HPER) and will last a couple hours. Please show your support by emailing me if you can volunteer on October 2nd and 3rd. Also, please plan on contributing to the set-up on October 1st if you are able. Dr. Eda and the Knoxville Kendo Club have put much time into its planning. This tournament will be one of the largest Kendo tournaments in the entire Southeast with over 250 participants!
Respond by email if interested!

The meeting for the planning of the University of Tennessee Annual Judo Invitational will be Monday, October 4th at Mellow Mushroom 8:30pm on Cumberland Ave. We will be discussing the contributions of all available members as well as planning for set-up, trial run, take-down, and operation. Mark your calendars! If you are not able to attend but wish to contribute, respond by email. The tournament date is Saturday, November 20th.

To our webmaster: Could you please add these times for tkd to the web!

Best!
