We went paintballing but we were too busy to take pictures.  Then there was the End of Semester Karoake Party in May, 2007.  Darth Vader stayed for that, and the Jedi had a great time; see the Gallery page for pictures.

First test day
The first test held at the FSU Club was November 13, 2005. Six students earned their orange belts in Tae Soo Do! Inst. Spoehr and the FSU Club welcomed Inst. Diane Spoehr from Jacksonville as she met the students and joined Inst. Bret Spoehr on the judging panel. This first test was held outside on the green at the Alumni Park, and it was a proud day for the FSU Club; our first official event! See the Gallery for more photos from this test. 
 

Beginnings...Oct. 2005.
    Beginning of FSU Club
The Hwa Rang Do®/Tae Soo Do® club was opened at FSU in October, 2005 by Instructor Bret Spoehr and students of FSU.  The club began when SaBum Nim Spoehr was seen training on the green in front of the main library on campus. Students stopped to find out more about the moves he was demonstrating, and the FSU Hwa Rang Do club was born.

The club promises to be the most exciting martial art group on campus, and we are growing by leaps and bounds! 

Ms. Min-Jung Lee, Inst. Spoehr's English teacher, agreed to be our faculty sponsor, and we are pleased she has accepted that position; we are fortunate to have her support and encouragement. Kam sa hap ni da, Ms. Lee!
