  • Beat the Crap out of Cancer----Bloomington Illinois

    I would like to invite you to the 2nd Annual “Beat the Crap Out of Cancer” Event being held on Saturday Oct 15th to benefit Cancer research.

    This event started in Toronto Canada and has become a worldwide event, with locations this year in Hawaii, Los Angeles, Bloomington Illinois, Toronto Canada and The United Kingdom all on the same day.

    This event is for Weapons Fighters of all Martial Arts to get together and fight for a worthy cause.... As with most “Fund raising events” ,Each fighter is asked to get friends and family members to “sponsor the fighter” our recommended sponsorship levels are $5 per fight or $25 per day, but any amout will help and all funds raised will be greatly appreciated!. We encourage you as a fighter to get as many fights as you can to help battle this terrible disease.

    We are also recruiting Corporate Sponsors to help this “unique” event.

    Every fighter will be able to wear as little or as Much Protective gear as they feel comfortable with. Fighters may also elect to fight with Padded Weapons, or live rattan or hard wood weapons. Head gear is a MUST. This is NOT a Dog Brothers Gathering, but rather an event for the Martial Arts weapons community to get together and Spar against other weapons based martial artists and to test yourself and test your art. This is open to ALL Styles, …Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Filipino, Indian, Native American, Israeli, Indonesian, African and all other systems.

    Each Fighter will be receiving an Event T-shirt to wear when they fight to support the cause.

    Fighter Registration/ Sponsorship forms will be available on the web at http://www.jkd-concepts.com/Cancer.htmlbegining on August 22nd or we can email the forms to you or send them through the post office.

    This year, the Illinois event will be held at Forest Park in Bloomington Illinois from 11:00am. to 3:00 pm.
    -
    In the event of Rain the event will be held at the Lincoln Leisure Center in Bloomington, Illinois.
    -
    Please don’t miss out on an opportunity to watch or participate in a terrific and unique event for a worthy cause.

    Each one of us has been affected directly or indirectly by Cancer. It’s time to stop standing on the side and Fight for those who battle this disease every day.

    WE Hope to see you at this event, and please take the time and pass this invitation on to your family and friends.

      I just wanted to chime in and say that I think that this is a wonderful thing you guys are doing. I hope this idea catches on, because it's a brilliant way to allow for the free-flow of information and exposure to the arts, allows individuals to pressure test their technique, and brings the arts into a positive light that is often diminished by the way people tend to promote fights these days. Besides being an awesome boon for martial arts and martial artists, it highlights the better aspects of humanity and is a charitable, moving and beautiful thing. I hope to one day see something like this in my area.
