On December 3rd, our Institute held our 2006 Annual Banquet. In attendance were 300 guests this year.
After an opening blessing by Sifu Britt, Sifu Michael Ashmore performed the 13 posture spear form.
Following this came a special video presentation prepared by Sifu Britt featuring historical footage featuring clips of our teachers from our Institute's various travels to Southeast Asia. Much of this footage had never been seen before and was a joy to watch bringing back many memories to all.
The dinner provided by the Sterling Inn was excellent. Afterwards came a 'lucky draw' for various gifts including free seminars, denim shirts and baseball caps.
From all reports everyone seemed to have an excellent time.
Sifu Britt would like to thank the following whose efforts helped to make the event a success.
Notations Fine Stationary of Rochester for a beautiful job in preparing our tickets.
Futuristic Artwear who continue to supply our training clothing with the highest standard of excellence.
Sterling Banquet And Conference Center for their wonderful hosting of the event, in particular thanks going out to Gina Moss, Crystal Cornelius and Victoria Uddin.
