Laura’s Race Car Debut

On Saturday May 15th I had a chance to drive a Nascar!  This was a Christmas gift given to me by my husband, something I had always wanted to do!  After learning the laws of the track and being suited up for driving, I had a chance to drive eight laps!  It was a total blast.  The only question is when I can do it again.

Next Blackbelt Pre-test Scheduled

On their way to earning the blackbelt, Laura and Jonathan will participate in their next pre-test on June 13th!
