On October 22, we will be teaching an introduction to judo class for several groups of visually impaired kids and adults. I would like to get several volunteers to come and help teach the class. The class will be next Saturday, October 22, from 10:00am-2:00PM at the Warehouse Athletic Facility (click here for directions).
More information about the event is in this document: Spokane Paralympic Experience.
If you can only stay part of the time, I would still appreciate your help.
Please let me know at practice if you will be able to assist.
