Spring in the South 2018

Share

This Spring in the South marks the Chapel Hill Shotokan Dojo’s 40th anniversary.  The event will be held Saturday and Sunday, April 21-22, 2018. We are honored to have John Teramoto, godan and emeritus SKA and BBC president, coming to lead.

Spring in the South not only brings SKA members together to practice with an exceptional senior, but also represents a major fundraising event for the maintenance of the Shotokan Ohshima Dojo.

Practices will be held at the Middle School gymnasium of the Duke School, not far from the Duke University campus: 3716 Erwin Road, Durham, NC 27705. The gym is the first building on your left as you enter the campus. There is also a downloadable schedule and map.

Accommodations

The 2 hotels listed below are within 0.2 miles of one another. They are about a 10 minute drive from Duke School (where practices are held) and a few minutes from the Saturday night banquet. Please contact Nora if you need transportation. The Hampton Inn, where many SIS participants have stayed in the past, became the Quality Inn in 2013. Same hotel, better price.
