PEE-WEE SOCCER


ISSHINRYU Karate is a traditional form of martial art from Okinawa (the birthplace of Karate). This program is de-signed for students who are interested in learning a martial art form that places emphasis on quality learning, leading to successful skill mastery, and personal safety. Our program focuses on building strength, balance, co-ordination and flexibility through Kata (forms), Kobudo (weapons) and their Bunkai (practice applications). This translates in a no nonsense form of efficient self-defense techniques that have been proven highly effective. The study of IsshinRyu helps build character, self-esteem, self-control, and self-confidence. The instructors Frank Harvey and two time Martial Arts Hall of Fame recipient Kevin Kline each have over a decade of teaching experience. They have trained with some of the world’s foremost experts.

Location: Old King George Middle School.

SPECIAL EVENTS

Want to break into publishing or finally write that book but aren’t sure where to start? Join four award-winning and bestselling authors as they discuss how they started and kept their careers moving forward. Light refreshments will be served during this interactive and lively discussion. Au-thors will also sign books.

WRITE NOW: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WRITING & PUBLISHING

Mary BehreBio: Award-winning author Mary Behre writes stories with humor, suspense, and a psychic love-connection. When not devising new ways to torment her characters, she has fun reading, gluten-free baking, or taking long walks with her favorite people — her husband and children. Keep in touch with her through her website: www.MaryBehre.com, Face-book.com/MaryBehre.Author, or Twitter.com/MaryBehre.Book series: The Tidewater series.

Avery FlynnBio: Avery Flynn is an award-winning author of more than 20 books. She has three slightly-wild children, loves a hockey-addicted husband and hopes someone invents the coffee IV drip. She was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to always be both. She loves to write about smart alpha heroes who are as good with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her hero-ines are feisty, fierce and fantastic ladies who know how to stand on their own two feet and knock bad guys off theirs. Book series: The B-Squad series. The Tempt Me series.

Tracey LivesayBio: A former criminal defense attorney, Tracey Livesay finds crafting believable happily ever afters slightly more challenging than protecting our constitutional rights, but she’s never regretted following her heart instead of her law degree. She lives in Virginia with her husband-who she met on the very first day of law school–and their three children. www.traceylivesay.com Book Series: Shades of Love series & In Love With A Tycoon series

Kimberly KincaidBio: USA Today Best-selling author Kimberly Kincaid writes bold, sexy contemporary romance and romantic suspense. When she’s not sitting cross-legged in an ancient desk chair known as “The Pleather Bomber”, she can be found practicing obscene amounts of yoga, whipping up anything from enchiladas to éclairs in her kitchen, or curled up with her nose in a book. Kimberly is a 2016 and 2015 RWA RITA finalist who lives (and writes!) by the mantra that food is love. She resides in Virginia with her wildly patient hus-band and their three daughters. Visit her any time at www.kimberlykincaid.com or come check her out on Facebook (www.facebook.com/kimberly.kincaid1) and Twitter (@kimberlykincaid). Books: Skin Deep (Station Seventeen Series) https://kim-berlykincaid.com/books/skin-deep/ and Crossing Hearts (Cross Creek series) https://kimberlykincaid.com/books/crossing-hearts/

May 13 2:00 - 4:00 p.m. at the King George Middle School auditorium
