Subject: Mr. True’s & Mr. McDonald’s Dojo Travel Schedule
Release Date: Tuesday January 27, 2009
As you know by now, the IIKA has initiated a Dojo Visitation Program that began this month. For 2009, Mr. True and Mr. McDonald are the IIKA’s representatives that will be visiting as many IIKA member dojos as possible throughout the year. This program is available only to IIKA member dojos and there is no cost to the dojo or any IIKA member.

Due to the number of requests that have already been submitted; they are asking that any dojo requesting a visit from either of them please schedule a Saturday as opposed to a weeknight. Both Mr. True and Mr. McDonald have responsibilities involving work and/or family that, like most of us, requires them to be close to home during the week. Traveling to a member dojo, conducting a 2 to 3 hour seminar and then returning to arrive home late at night, with commitments early the next day, creates scheduling difficulties that a weekend date would avoid.

To invite either of them to visit your dojo, please contact them at the following e-mail addresses:

Mr. True (through Ridge Richardson) at creativeguy@comcast.net

Mr. McDonald at mcdonaldjimmy@comcast.net

Sincerely,
IIKA Staff
