BREAK-A-THON
This year our Break-A-Thon will be Saturday, September 17th at Mr. Biggs from 9:30a.m. – 12:30p.m.
For those students who are new to our Dojangs: Every year we hold a “Break-A-Thon” and receive pledges for breaking boards. This is our way of giving back to the community, and there is a different charitable organization we support each year.
This year we are supporting the Woo Song Foundation. This is a foundation created in Dae Sabumnim’s honor to provide Taekwondo scholarships to under-priviledged families, so their children can receive the same benefits from Taekwondo that we do.
Right now this 501c(3) non-profit is serving all the Taekwondo schools in the Colorado Springs and Denver area. Very soon, they will be serving schools nationally! We are very excited to be raising funds for this cause!
Sponsorship packets will be finished soon – watch for the announcements!
Not that anyone needs any extra incentive – but our visiting Korean Master Instructors will be performing a demonstration on that morning as well!
