Terre Haute - April 19, 2008

We are thrilled to announce the success that ChunJiDo members had at the spring Terre Haute tournament on April 19, 2008. We had seventeen competitors attend, who honored us by receiving forty-nine first-place medals, twenty-four second-place medals, and seven third-place medals. We were also fortunate enough to have seven Grand Champions among our ChunJiDo ranks. Congratulations to all of the competitors on a job well-done!

We would also like to extend a special thanks to all of the parents who took a role in helping to make this tournament come together. Parents who assisted in various capacities included: Aric Butowsky, Dana Niemeier, Sabrina Straw, and David Straw. Thank you for your support, parents!
