| First Degree Black Belt |
| I would like to submit
a news item for your consideration. My son Michael Forcelle was awarded
his First Degree Black Belt in Tae-Kwon-Do by his instructors, Chris Velez
- Fifth Degree/ Chief Instructor and Rick Gibson - Third Degree/ Instructor,
of The Family Martial Arts Academy in Owasso on December 14, 2013. He
is a student at the Collinsville Middle School. His family and friends
are all very proud of his great accomplishment.
His mother and I would also like to thank his instructors for sharing their wonderful knowledge, abilities, and guidance with Michael, and for serving as excellent positive role models for him, their other students, and the community as a whole. Thank you, |
