FEMA 2011 BOWLATHON

On March 27, 2011 from 4-7pm at our local Bryant Lake Bowl, twenty-one FEMA students and family gathered for FEMA'a annual fund-raiser.  We bowled on four lanes and had twenty one people rolling that heavy ball towards pins for a good cause. 


Prizes were awarded to:

-"The Pin Knockers" for best team name.
 -Olivia for most strikes
-Marisol for a record number of gutter balls
-Shimei Annie for best team spirit
-Shifu/Sensei Kore' for highest game (conceded to Adam-next highest)
-The Disco Dancing Leprechans" won for highest team score
-Alison won for best costume (she came & bowled as the queen of hearts)


All PLEDGES are due on MAY 2nd-Monday.
Thank you to everyone who participated-especially our team captain: Shimei Naomi, Shimei Airn, Shimei Annie & Shifu Kore', and the score keepers- Stacy, Jan, Michael, & S.Airn.

FEMA's NEW ERA!

On March 21, 2011 FEMA's Board of Directors unanimously decided to open our Beginners class to EVERYONE (13 and older)! "FEMA is Family Friendly" and "FIVE ELEMENT(s) for ALL GENDERS" were two of my favorite quotes from students this last Wednesday night.

We also will be hosting a very special "HIGH SCHOOL NIGHT" on Friday April 29th hosted by our very own FLY teens (FEMA LEADERSHIP YOUTH).

The FIVE FINGERS of Self Defense & Empowerment in currently underway (March 23 through April 20th) and our KNITTING MEDITATION will be tonight (March 24 7-8pm).

In these turbulent times, it is good to know that we have a strong community that focuses on healing, growing, and opening to new adventures!
Light & Love, Shifu/Sensei Kore'
