  • KXLY New Story on Masking

    Here is the KXLY story on judo and the mask mandate. Thank you to Pacific Judo for coming and helping make this a success. If you haven’t watched the story, here it is.
    See everyone with masks on Saturday.

  • Updated Mask Guidance

    After a more careful reading of the DOH order, it looks like we all need to wear masks while working out.
    The order gives some exceptions to the mask order but it specifically says:
    “This exception does not apply while the athlete, coach, or official is not actively engaged in the sporting, coaching, or officiating activity or to indoor gyms and other fitness facilities, such as dance, yoga, and martial arts facilities”

    So put on a mask and come and workout (we will be adjusting practice to make this easier).

  • Practice with Pacific tomorrow 8/26

    Just a reminder that Pacific will be joining us tomorrow. KXLY is sending a reporter to ask us about the impact on us of the new mask mandate. I hope to see everyone there.
