The FMA Brotherhood Midwest Event was a successful event that provided tremendous experiences for everyone who attended. The demonstration by Pangulong Guro Chuck Cadell's Demonstration Team was GREAT!!! The instruction provided by GM John Malmo of the Kombatan System, Lakan Guro Brian "Buzz" Smith of Maharlika Kuntaw, Maha Guro Wes Bennett, Pangulong Guro Chuck Cadell & Guro Mike Casto was OUTSTANDING!!!!
Without the support & cooperation of Sensei David Daiber, owner of KiDo Karate, Highland, Il. this event would not have been possible. Many thanks to Mr. & Mrs. Daiber for their support on this event weekend.
A special thanks to my wife Susie, my daughter Breanne, her boyfriend Brian, my aunt Coralee & her "young" man Tom.
This event benefitted "The Wounded Warrior Project". The instructors & volunteers gave their valuable time which is invaluable in charitable situations. Their continued success will secure success for this event which I plan to host annually.
Many thanks to all in the WSEF who kept us in their thoughts & prayers as well as thos that assisted in promotion via internet & other means.
I look forward to seeing everyone next year.
