    • Mt Hood

      This is a view of Mount Hood from the West, along I-205. Most camp attendees will get this view on the ride from PDX to Salem. Silver Creek Falls, the largest state park in Oregon, is located to the South and West of Mt Hood, or to the right in this photograph. If you wish, you can ski on Mt Hood 12 months a year. Just 2 weeks ago the snow level was down to 4500 feet, but Silver Falls is considerably lower and warmer.

      • Fighting Group Instructor

        Bob Carver, President of the Thai Boxing Association of Canada, and long-time Fighters' Group Instructor at the camp pictured with trainer/manager par excellence Angelo Dundee just a couple of days ago at Khru Bob's school in Ottawa. Mr Dundee has trained at least 17 World Champion boxers. Bob is coming this year, and hopefully will be prepared to share his vast knowledge with everyone.

        • Could you please tell me who the regional instructors are Sir? None of my group new last year, so we all got those questions wrong.

          • Regional Directors

            I believe my information is outdated. What I have is:
            NW: Professor Leonard Trigg
            NC: Rick Faye
            NE: Don Garon
            SW: Dave Rawlings, Ajarn Dan Inosanto or ??
            SC: Darian Whitaker
            SE: Sifu Francis Fong

            Sorry I cannot be of more help. Surely someone else is more current than I?

            • Powwow

              Thanks to Tracy Shank of Pittsburgh for this picture of Ajarn Dan at the Powwow in 2003. We have had the same Indians dancing for us every year. This year may be the last for Jesse, who has been with us since he was a young teen. He has a very serious disease and will dance no more. That is him behind the young girl in the center. Unfortunately, I have no more pictures of him to share.

              • Morning at Silver Falls

                Here is Master Chai wandering around before morning workout, still slightly chilled. He is undoubtedly asking people how they are feeling, and telling everyone to relax and have fun. Again, thanks go to Tracy from Pittsburgh for sending me these photos. There are lots of them and my PC is not working correctly (it belongs to another person) so I gave the disc to Dan Burke and he is emailing them to me a few at a time for the next 5 weeks. I hope I don't bore too many of you. Also I have included a pic of Natalie from Santa Fe. I owe one to her because last year she was on the plaque list and we didn't get her one. Master Chai saw her name and promised her we would, but I had to remind him (sorry about this Natalie) that he had me put her name there as part of an elaborate trick to find where she had her tent so we could move it during lunch. So you see, while the campers are using a lot of physical energy, Master Chai still has plenty left. It is kind of a backwards badge of honor to be so selected, although the cooks' helpers who went to Salem and got drunk the year we decided to just turn their tent 180 degrees might not have thought so. It sure was funny watching them try to find the zipper, after all, their shoes and the mud mat were right there...

                  • Getting ready at 9:30 a.m. You can tell it is the second or third day at least because the grass to the right is worn down.

                    • Gee, Silver Falls sure looks nice! Wow, just look at all that beautiful scenery which could only be at Silver Falls. Isn't Silver Falls a great place to have camp everyone?

                      • There is a comedian(sic) looth in Duluth

                        Again this year all Full Instructors have been given permission to assign pushups. Just kidding of course, I think actually everyone is doing bodybuilders.

                          I have his set of 3 video tape instructionals ... I love it! It's very clear instruction for anyone interested in Muay Thai.
