Relay for Life fundraising is in full swing at MPK. We will be holding an “MPK Kick-a-thon” at the July 28 Relay for Life event in DeForest.

We have your board kit at the studio for $3. The kit includes: your board, envelope, and a script of what to say when seeking donations. Our goal for the studio is to have 100 students to raise $100. That’s a BIG goal, but there’s no doubt it’s a worthy one.

Stop in, pick up your kit, and get started today. The Relay is on July 28 and we are going to do a demo followed by the kick-a-thon. The karate demo is at 7:30 pm. It’s going to be a fun and exciting event!

Our morning classes for Little Kickers and Juniors are set to begin. Starting June 12 we have morning classes beginning at 9:00 am:

9:00 – 9:30 am — Little Kickers (ages 4-7)
9:00 – 9:45 am — Juniors (ages 8-13)

Join MPK in support of Relay for Life with a Father’s Day outing at the Duck Pond! For the Sunday, June 17 Mallards game, friends and family from MPK will be tailgating before the game, so please plan to arrive between 1-1:30pm. The game is scheduled to begin at 3:05pm.

Please bring your own grill, or plan to share with other families. Each family will be responsible for their own tailgate dinner.

Our tickets will be in the NEW grass outfield section. You can bring blankets, but not lawn chairs (and there are no carry-ins allowed).

A portion of the tickets will go directly to Relay for Life.

Kids Tickets = $11 ($3 will go to Relay for Life)
Adult Tickets = $13 ($5 will go to Relay for Life)

The Mallards promotion for the game is “Stoddard’s Country Grove Market Father’s Day Celebration” with a free grill glove for the first 500 dads!

Hope to see you there. Pass it on as this should be a lot of fun for a great cause.
