Sounds like a great place to meet and great.
Sorry I have a Dr.'s appointment or I'd be there

 

[The Mark]

But what's a Dr's appointment compared to meeting all the new people!!!

 

[Bob Hubbard]

I'll be in Toronto that day (weekend), or I'd swing up with my GF. Sounds like a lot of fun though. I put the info up on WNYMartialArts.com should be uploaded tonight when I do site updates. Good weather to y'all!

 

[The Mark]

Thanks for the well wishes and passing along the notice. Too bad you can't make it though. Maybe next year.

Be sure to post an update on how it goes

I'll be there! Looking forward to it, and hoping for another great turnout, some fun and interesting exchanges, and working out with some new folks.

Hi everyone,

This past weekend was the picnic and gathering. The attendance was less than in most years but we had a great time anyhow.

There were mostly wing chun people, from 3 different lineages, Tai Chi from 2 different schools and Pekita Tersia Kali.

The furthest distance traveld was from Montreal Canada and the day was won by the almost 5 year old Kali practioner.

There was informal presentations on Pekita Tersia and Tai Chi and working out. Time flew by quicker than anyone expected. I liked feeling the different energies of the repective arts and their strategies.

Maybe we'll see you next time?

Glad it was fun, it would be good to try something like this out in england. Just need to make sure ego's and bitchery don't get in the way.
