Happy Holidays – No Party This Year https://soengkono.com/happy-holidays-no-party-this-year/ Wed, 04 Nov 2020 15:21:36 +0000 https://www.soengkono.com/?p=31951

The Safety of our Students and Families is paramount to us, and while we can limit and control  students interaction in a class setting, it is impossible (and less than desirable) to do so in a party setting.  For this reason, the Soengkono World Class Martial Arts School has opted to cancel our annual Christmas Party.

We realize that this event is one of the highlights of Thunder Bay’s holiday season, with normally close to 300 students, family and friends attending and enjoying a night of awards, presentations and demonstrations from our TaeKwonDo, Aikido, Pentjak Silat and Tai Chi demonstration teams.  In postponing this event until next year, we want to ensure a joyous holiday season for all.
