Dear Grandmasters, Masters and Instructors,
I am pleased to invite you to the 2008
National Capitol Open TaeKwon Championship
on Saturday, March 15, 2008 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m at Herndon
High School,
700 Bennett St., Herndon, Va.
We are all looking forward to this event, to seeing all of
you there and once again working closely together to bring
greater honor to the art of TaeKwonDo. I am confident we will
once again enjoy the special unity of a true TaeKwonDo family
that this championship is known for. I thank you for your
past support and ask for your help and participation to ensure
another successful championship.
I hope you and your students are as excited about this year's
championship as I am. I earnestly request that you will continue
to educate your students so that they will not be concerned
just with winning a trophy or medal. Please continue to guide
them to discover that they are, first of all, competing within
themselves to further improve their knowledge.
Attending the right kinds of championships, such as the one
we are hosting, is important for the growth of TaeKwonDo students.
The presence of the students from other schools helps everyone
to improve beyond everyday class situations and gives everyone
a unique opportunity to express themselves to others.
So, although we compete together, more importantly we also
come together in a spirit of helping each other to grow physically,
mentally and morally through participation in this kind of
championship. Therefore, in addition to the regular awards,
as I have done in previous years, I will also give out many
special awards to the competitors from each rank who demonstrate
this spirit If you feel any of your competitors deserve special
recognition, please let me know at least two weeks prior to
the championship so I can prepare a special award for him
or her.
In the same spirit, all decisions will be final and no arguing
with officials will be tolerated at this championship. Let's
all work together to encourage our students' improvement,
and share our discipline and TaeKwonDo spirit with each other
as well as with the public.
If you have any questions or need special assistance, please
do not hesitate to call us at (703) 437-5111.
Sincerely,
Grandmaster Hyeon Kon Lee
Championship Director
