for our annual tournament.

Each year, we host the SK Provincial Wad0-Kai Karate Tournament and it is always a terrific success. But only because we work together to make it that way!

The tournament draws over 100 people annually from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta and often has guests from Ontario as well. Naturally, to have an event like this run smoothly, we must ask people to take on certain responsibilities. But many hands make light work and if we all pitch in to help out no single job is very difficult.

We have only 2 workouts left to prepare for the tournament so next week we will be asking for volunteers for certain jobs on the tournament weekend. Since we’ll all be there (wink wink), it is easier to help out with some of these jobs.

We’ll need help with score keeping and timing (we’ll teach you how to do it; it’s really easy), canteen (including people to run the BBQ’s if that’s what’s decided), perhaps a prize table like our kids have at hockey tournaments, an equipment/merchandise table, and some other jobs as well. Come to the workout next week with your “Volunteer Hat” on!

This tournament has been running in Carlyle for over 25 years! Let’s make this the best one yet!!

Oh, and don’t forget to practice your kata!
