NOT ALL STUDENTS GOT MENTIONED.  They gave some effort, but failed to earn any awards.  This is a Martial Arts School that is Traditional.  We do not award everyone just for showing up.  You must put in effort and not quit when you think your done. 
So several students are not mentioned.

My parents are the heaven and the earth.

My home is my body.

My power is loyalty.

My magic is training.

My life and my death is breathing.

My body is control.

My eyes are the sun and the moon.

My ears are sensitivity.

My laws are self-protection.

My strength is adaptability.

My ambition is taking every opportunity with fullness.

My friend is my mind.

My enemy is carelessness.

My protection is right action.

My weapons are everything that exists.

My strategy is one foot in front of the other.

My way is ninjutsu.

We have been informed by numerous sources that several Karate Schools have copied our awards, names, training tactics, our style of hats, modes of teaching and have taught it as their own.  Your welcome.  Not a problem.  We have always set the example for others to follow.  We have been teaching in Traditional Karate Schools for over 40 years now.  Our procedures are some of the best style of discipline training in the world.  Renegade Instructors do not have anyone over them to keep them in line or to correct their incorrect teaching principles; so anything we can do to keep renegades and others from demoralizing the Martial Arts is greatly appreciated by us.  We are glad that you copy us.  Keep it up.

Campout Cleanup.  The BKS School pulled out over 8 large duffle size bags of garbage left from previous campers.  Especially down in the lower section by the road and softball area.  We took the time & energy to clean up after others inconsiderate camping techniques.
