Anniversary Course & Ball

Celebrating 15 Years of Jitsu Canada

Saturday 20th September 2008

The first Shorinji Kan Jiu Jitsu session held in Canada was on Monday September 20th 1993. Exactly 15 years later to the day we will be holding a celebratory course, followed by a ball in the evening. The event will be held in Kingston, ON. The course will be taking place at either Cloverdale Hall or the Kingston Military Community Sports Centre. The ball will be held at The Harbour (see their website).

The course will be open to all members (from novice to black belt) and should feature some exciting training as we anticipate most (hopefully all!) of our instructors will be present. The ball will be a dinner and dance overlooking the Kingston Harbour. This event will be an excellent opportunity for members of Jitsu Canada (and guests) to get together and celebrate 15 years of growth and success. In addition to the dinner and dance, there will be a number of activities planned to commemorate the years, including speeches, slideshows and a commemorative DVD!
