AT FIRST LOOK
Not much in the way of reports this issue, just tournament results. Newsletters are getting a bit more difficult to write these days with the instant communication that is available on the internet. CKF members can get their information from the kendo-canada listserver ( join from http://kendo-canada.com/ ) or iaido-l ( http://www.uoguelph.ca/~iaido/iai.sign-on.html ) almost daily. There are also electronic magazines and journals to check out ( EJMAS ) for more detailed articles, so a newsletter seems almost superfluous, but we keep offering it here for download and distribution to those who don't have access to the net.
So here's the September issue for your perusal. Feedback is always welcome.

Many thanks to all those
attended the Toronto Kendo Club 20th and Mississauga Kendo Club 5th Anniversary
Tournament on Saturday. Many thanks as well to all those who worked as
volunteers, organizers and referees, as well as to those who supported
the tournament financially through the purchase of ads in our program and
through donations.
The tournament was a great
success, with over 190 participants from Japan, the US and Canada. The
31-member delegation from Takushoku University showed superb Kendo, demonstrating
the level of speed and skill that can be reached when Kendoka practice
rigorously on a daily basis!

The Japanese Sword Arts FAQ has been updated and moved to:
http://www.kendo-sask.com/swordfaq.htm
The old addresses at www.sfn.saskatoon.sk.ca/sports/kendo
still work and will contain redirects for as long as the tottering Saskatoon
Freenet still stands. The FAQ changes are mostly just link updates and
spelling fixes.
