Had a great pool party. The weather was awesome, and had majority of all the students at the pool. We also might have gained 1 or 2 students from the pool party.

Thanks everyone for making it great.

Chatter Box:: MSOI Website
Greetings to all.

Sorry we haven't been updating website as fast or as much as we would like to. Things have been tough at the dojos, and within the AOKA with membership drops, economic times are tough.

Please hang in there, and keep up the hard work that you have been doing.
