November Okugyo Retreat Cancelled

Sadly the Okugyo retreat that was scheduled for November has not had
sufficient registrations and so has to be cancelled. Those who have sent in
deposits will receive refund checks soon.

After talking with Bill Sensei this weekend, we have decided to not schedule any
further Okugyo retreats save one in the summer of 2009 in Toledo. If we have
the required 20 participants registered and prepaid a month before hand the retreat
will happen, but not otherwise. The exact dates for this are yet to be determined.

Hopefully with the publication of Senseis new book there will be a renewed
interest in the Okugyo project.

Bill Sensei and I offer my deepest apologies to those few who had made the
commitment to setthe time aside to practice, hopefully others will share your
feelings for the retreat in the summer and Okugyo will continue.

Sincerely,

- Jay
