Every October we touch on Teen Dating and Domestic Violence. We have a very familiar face, Ms. Marci Batiste, popping in to bless us again with her power. We’ll also be joined by one of our favorite speakers on this subject, Ms. Grace Scott.

For our outreach, we are meeting at Shotokan Karate Judo for some interactive self-defense training at 9:30am BEFORE our seminar. We don’t encourage violence, but we need to be prepared. Parents and kids can participate. 

Don’t forget to bring your shoes to donate to the seminar. We need fairly worn shoes(sneakers only) to donate to Avondale Advantage for their shoe program! Last month we collected 39 pairs. Can we hit our goal of 50 pairs this month?

P.S.

If you haven’t heard Grace Scott recently suffered from a fire at her house and she could use some help from us to recover from it. It takes a village. She gives so much of herself to our community let’s come together and help her. Some items she can use, a iron, ironing board, coffee maker, plates and pans and other household items. Please bring any items you can donate to the seminar.
