| Dear
parents and students,
Thank you for such a wonderful 10th Anniversary Celebration at our 10th Annual Aikido Demonstration and Potluck! It was an excellent turn-out! I do hope you all had an enjoyable Saturday morning, and your fill of fabulous food from all our students and parents. Thanks to all the parents and students who came early to set-up and who stayed back to clear up. You make up the dojo, and have made it possible for Ueshiba Aikido Victoria to grow and last these 10 years. Thank you!
And after 10 years of talking about it, we finally went on our first visit to the World Aikido Headquarters in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. It was an awesome trip! I'm so glad it was a success... and those who went would like to go again. The next trip will be in 2016 and we already have about 15 people looking forward to it and saving for it.

Thank you, also, for all your gifts and well wishes. My family and I appreciate each and every one of them. It was such a lovely surprise, also, to receive the Tozando Dogi, the 10th Anniversary Scroll and the luggage! Thank you so much for your contributions and support... wow... And thank you, Barbi and Aimee Gillam for such a beautifully magnificent birthday cake! Just beautiful!
Thanks also to the Deshi, students, Nicole and Mrs Oei who pulled it all together. I think it may be one of our best gatherings to date.
I'll upload the photos to the UAV website as soon as I return from Orlando, Florida.
