Proud to be here

Welcome aboard, George. It seems that you have quite a bit of experience in Tae Kwon Do, and we look forward to your postings.
 
I thank all of you for the warmest greeting I have had in quite a while.

I play Hapkido and Taekwondo and live Sungjado.
 
Hello Mr. Petrotta.
I am somewhat familiar with you through Karate For Christ Int.
I got my instructor certification through KFCI back when Mr Lumpkin was president in 2001. I live right outside of Aiken, SC (I know you are in Florence), and have been wanting to visit your school.
It is a pleasure to have you here.

Hi Johnny,
Grandmaster Lumpkin, Founder of Shinse Hapkido, was in Dallas, TX with me this past weekend. We had a KMA tournament on Saturday and my seminar on Sunday. Friday night we had a great meal at a super steakhouse in Dallas. We sat at the table at had a fantastic discussion about KMA and Kuk Sool Won. Chief Master Marlin Sims was with us and he is a very knowledgeable person on KSW. On Saturday night we had a banquet and I was proud to present GM Lumpkin with his 7th Dan from the World KIDO Federation and GM In Sun Seo. I was also presented my 8th Dan by the Texas State rep. for the KIDO.
GM Lumpkin and I have been close friends since 2000 and we advise each other on everything.
He started flying one of those new Ultra-lite planes here recently and when he got back home from Dallas, he took the little bird up and clipped a tree with one of his wheels. He immediately went head down from 40 feet and by the grace of God, landed in a small pond. He hit so hard that he went through the windshield, and then walked away from it. God is great!!
 
Welcome to MT----good to have you with us!
