[Sportsandrec] announcement of self defense workshop -- attention, change to previous schedule

[Christella Garcia]

Hey everybody I just want to say you are in for a treat. I hope as
many people as possible will attend this fantastic workshop. Steven is
a awesome person. He has a lot of energy and he's very passionate
about teaching. I am extremely thrilled that the NFB will be hosting a
workshop. Way to go sports and recreation division! I would love to be
there but I am very busy training to go to London. I hope everybody
will capitalize on this fantastic opportunity.
