To PMA Children's Class
1).  As of today, June 24, July 01,  July 09, Update July 15 ...   
We have not received a response from the Piscataway Dept. of Recreation regarding having a location for the Tuesday night summer program.  In previous years (3 years ago and prior)  we had gym space at the high school during the summer.  Last summer (2018) and also in 2017, we held the summer program on the grass outside Conackamack School or on the football field due to not having any allocated space for our program.   Safety and Conditions were a concern  because of heat, rain,  mud, allergies, insect bites, deer and other animal droppings.  

This posting will be updated if we receive space from the Rec. Dept. for Tuesday nights for Summer 2019.

An alternate training solution and location is offered below for this years' summer program.

                      Note1  :  A $10.00 per student fee is requested if you plan to stay and participate
                      Note2  :  This training usually involves a great deal of falling (take-downs) and grappling. 
                                          Many purple belt students are new to their rank and have not had a chance to
                                          train on falls and grappling work on the mats.  Therefore please consider this
                                          when deciding if you will stay and participate.
                      Note3  :  This training also usually involves body-on-body, very up-close and personal contact.
                                          We try to always have boy-with-boy, or girl-with-girl partners, but we cannot 100%
                                           guarantee that you will be working with someone of the same gender as you.
