Our second annual potluck has come and gone. Thank you to all those who attended for the wonderful food and company. It was a very nice time. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate much, but having it indoors kept everyone a little closer in proximity and made the socializing a little more personal. I hope every enjoyed themselves and will help keep this annual event going.
The new space is not exactly complete but it is ready for training to begin. With any luck by the end of October most of the final touches will be complete. Grandmaster had give me recommendations for training hall colors and the such. I would like to thank those who have give of their free time to help with the mess and grunt work portion of the build out. With out the help we would probably still be a week or two away from getting into the new space.
It looks like after September 2nd we will be able to begin work on preparing the space for the new school. I will post when we will be there working on the space and what will be done. Come help create your new Kung Fu training hall!
With our move to the new space in October will come the new schedule for the Childrens Kung Fu classes. For the three weeks of September we will keep the old schedule of Monday class from 4:15 – 5:00. Starting October 5th we will begin the new schedule of Monday and Wednesday. The start time may be shifted back to 4:30. Final decision on times will be posted in the next couple weeks. We are looking forward to seeing everyone back to train Kung Fu and have some fun after the late summer break!
Golden Leopards move to a new training hall in South Minneapolis is progressing. A lease has been agreed on and the date for opening of the new location is October 1st, 2009.
The new location will be at 3920 Nicollet Ave So. Just a few minutes from our current location. The new location will give us better training space and the ability to expand our current class schedule. There is a lot of work that will need to be accomplished before this date but we are very much looking forward to what this move will offer. We will be working in the next couple weeks to get a new schedule and class list on the website. We will also try to keep you updated on the progress.
