Genbu Kai's Annual Awards Banquet 2017

always a special night.

Angelo & Vinci's, Fullerton, CA

Always before Thanksgiving & the holiday rush,

but in keeping with our thanks for Demura Sensei,

our Genbu-Kai organization, families & friends gather.

We have a glue that binds us, even when we are apart.

Our MC for the evening was Dan McGaugh (below left)

Dan McGeough & Leo Nakamura

 who is both professional & wonderful, orchestrated the event.

 Leo & Susan Nakamura ...

magically organized & decorated the event.




Demura Sensei made gifts.
Yudansha donated gifts for the raffle.

Thank you Demura Sensei ...

for your inspiration, guidance, knowledge & patience.

We treasure & celebrate you.

A smile for Monday ...
