Academy Celebration - Saturday, January 15th
| |
Come Celebrate - Happy Anniversary, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year's, and Happy to be a Part of Five Rings!
It's hard to believe that we have only been around one year when you look around at the family of friends we have established and the level of jiu jitsu practitioners flourishing on our mats. The list of accomplishments we've achieved is impressive.
Please come out on the 15th to celebrate what we are all continuing to grow together!
 The party will be a potluck style so please rsvp (down below) and let Coach Eric know what dish you plan to bring (eric@5rjj.com) so we can start coordinating, as it would be a bummer to end up with 40 pies and 20 potato salads. The gym will be providing seating, dishes, a fair amount of beef and chicken skewers and water/soda.
Dress casual and prepared to have a great time with wonderful friends. Please RSVP by Wednesday, January 12. To view the event invitation online, go HERE.
Also, don't forget the December attendance raffle winners will be announced during the party!
See you all there! ! !
