The 3rd Annual Kung-Fu
Friendship Games and Competition
We thank all of our competitors, Sifu's, Demonstrator's, Assistant's and Helpers who brought a positive spirit to the event to make it a success!
All the competitors were so good we had several ties. There are no losers at such an event, it takes a great deal of courage to step infront of an audience and demonstrate one's skills. Failure only comes from not trying or not trying again, a few successes are based on many failures. Babe Ruth had a high batting average because he tried more (and failed more) than his peers. Winston Churchil made the observation "It is far better to dare mighty things than to rank with those poor timid spirits that know neither victory or defeat", so congratulations to all our brave competitors for making the effort, you are all winners.
We have many pictures and will be posting them as soon as they are ready, so keep checking back. Right now we have a lot of thumbnail photos below and we will be putting up links to the full sized photos soon, in the mean time you can at least see this.
