This sounds awesome,

How many seminars/classes are planned over the course of the weekend?  And any idea on what they'll be covering?

[Sisco T.]

 i really don't know if i can, but i'm going to try very hard to be able to go to this.

 p.s.
  i'm still alive guro C. talk w/ you soon

[Sisco T.]

[C-Kumu Dog]

Hopefully some of this material will make it onto a DBMA DVD 

[Crafty_Dog]

Things that make you go hmmmm. 

[Guard Dog]

Personally I think doing a "camp" DVD would be awesome!  Everyone else is doing it and I know that myself and others buy every "camp" DVD set that comes out!    Dog Brothers Martial Arts Camp 2009 . . . has a good ring!

[mexicannnnnn]

Rene count me in!

[Growling Dog]

hey sisco
the airport your looking for is YYZ ( toronto pearson)

[c - Shadow Dog]

    I wish it was that easy...  Not even close to being on the fence.  Stuck in the Kennel more like it, with Uncle Sam holding the key to the gate. 

I'll be with you all in spirit.  take lots of photos.

Just back from visiting my mom in upstate NY with my family on the way home.

Outstanding time-- a hearty howl to Dog Rene for making the First Annual DBMA Camp happen.

A great pleasure to see Sled Dog and Top Dog.

TD was in great shape-- it appears his "retirement" is turning out to be a second sabbatical.  His knife vs. Mai Sowks fight with Tricky Dog was outstanding on the part of both men.
