We did it!

Great news everyone!

We’re just waiting on the final bit of sponsorship money from the bike ride to come in (£20) and then we have reached our target!

We’ve already started the process of putting our order in for the new mats so fingers crossed we’ll have them in the dojos within the next 2 weeks.

A huge thanks to everyone who took part on the day and to those who sponsored our riders with your generous donations. I’m working on a little video that will go up onto our YouTube page soon. It’s taking a little longer than I thought as I’m still waiting on video footage and photos from a few people but as soon as I have it all I can get it finished and upload it for all of you to see.

The “THANK YOU” page will be up on the site in a few days so be sure to keep a look out.

Once the mats have arrived we’ll get some fun pictures of all the students in action on them!

Osu!

Fundraising project news!

GREAT NEWS!!!

We are pleased to announce that after searching for more suppliers for the mats in an effort to to get a better price, we had a stroke of luck and found a supplier that has the mats we wanted at a much lower price. So much so that when we have reached our target, we will be able to buy DOUBLE the amount of mats! Yes! That’s 200 mats we’re going to be ordering once we reach our target!
This means that South Ockendon and Grays dojos will now get matted out in the next few weeks.

“So why not just get 100 mats?”
The mats are being imported from overseas (hence the lower cost) and have to be collected by freight courier. Our long term goal has always been to get each of our dojos matted so now we are able to achieve this goal much earlier than planned.

We still need to reach our target as the total cost of the mats including freight costs is £2,286 (£6 more than our original target) so please keep sending in your sponsorship for all the riders who took part in the Inter-Dojo Bike Ride last Saturday by clicking the link below or in your local class.

OSU!

Inter-Dojo Bike Ride 2013

Our dojo is in desperate need of new training mats so that we can train safely. We need 100 mats to cover the floor area so to raise our target of £2,280, we will cycle a 35 mile route, passing all of the Seitou Ryu Karate dojos from Chelmsford to Grays.

This event is open to everyone! You do not have to be a member of Seitou Ryu Karate. So if you want to come for a ride to help us raise funds for new mats you’re welcome to join us either for part or the whole route! If you’d like to join us for the ride then download a sponsorship form here!

For more regular updates please check out the Facebook Event page.

→Chelmsford to Wickford = 11 Miles
→Wickford to South Ockendon = 18 Miles
→South Ockendon to West Thurrock = 4 Miles
→West Thurrock to Grays = 2 Miles

For safety, young ones can only partake in the 3rd and 4th stages of the ride. Adults can do the whole thing! Go on! You know you want to!
