August-October 2013 Newsletter

Locke Street Festival: Saturday, September 7, 2013

The Locke Street Festival, an annual celebration run by Locke Street businesses and local vendors, is on from 10am on Saturday, September 7, 2013. Locke Street will be closed to traffic that day.

The regular Qigong class (2-3pm) and Tai Chi class (3:00-4:30) will run that day. The Regent Centre runs an open house during the festival. This is a great opportunity to promote the classes. If you can attend class that day, I would appreciate it. It is a wonderful way to help me show visitors what we do.

If you are coming to class, please allow some extra time to find parking off Locke Street.

I will be away in late August and late September. If you are paying the monthly rate, your August dues will cover your classes for both August and September.
