30 10 2009We will meet at Hugh MacRae park tomorrow for iaido training instead of at Gold’s Gym. It should be nice and sunny out! Meet 12.30pm at the parking area next to the pond and gazebo. Look for weird folks in dark blue skirts and white tops waving wooden sticks around and yelling loudly if you get lost

Come hang out, get to know your fellow training partners outside of the dojo and see how well they can cook!
