In today’s challenging times twenty-five years in business is certainly worth celebrating and that’s what they will be doing this Saturday at Tong Dragon Mixed Martial Arts in Bayville. Eric Colon and his wife Julie are hosting the event to mark a quarter-century of operating their martial arts gym from 5 p.m. -7 p.m. There will be a Playa Bowls Food Truck, face painting for the kids, 25 years of pictures to look at and it will be a nice way for many former and current students to get together.
Eric by the way is recognized as one of the top MMA judges and travels all over the world to work fights. Tong Dragon was one of the original mixed martial arts schools in the shore and state and the public is invited to Saturday’s celebration.
Unrelated to either of these topics is the fact that my commitment to wearing shorts to work every day has ended. Not because of the weather but a lack of wardrobe and footwear as well as the fact my summer tan is all but gone. Sad news for sure.
The good news is that I still have not worn socks and that will continue for a bit longer.
