Beginners' Fun Day! Yay!

Hello Hello! York University Kendo Club invites all Beginners and Senpais to our annual long-standing tradition of the Beginners' Fun Day! It will be held on this coming Saturday October 5th 2013, beginning at 9am with our usual practice! Practice will be more of an unconventional one than usual, with programmes designed specially for everyone to have fun. After practice, we shall be heading towards Lunch with the Senseis, then Bowling at Yonge and Cummer St. Bowlerama and will end, *drumrolls* with drinks at night--York Kendo style! The Club will be covering a part of the expenses, so it would be extremely affordable for all! You can opt out the other events after Lunch, but we STRONGLY encourage you to stay for other events as well. This is the chance for you to meet and bond with your fellow peers, Senpais and other members of the club, so be sure to come! Challenge yourselves to step out of your comfort zone, come out and meet people, especially if you're a first year...
