Hap Ki Do, a sophisticated form of Korean martial arts, combines all elements of fighting such as punching, kicking, wrestling and sword. Martial Gagne's Karate School on Garlington Road in Greenville produced 20 medalists – who combined for a total of 67 medals. In addition, the U.S. team took first place in the average age 14 year old division. This year's world game was the first championship held outside of South Korea.  Aside from the Koreans, other teams competing in the game hailed from Germany, Russia, Austria, Slovenia, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Canada. “It was a big deal to beat Korea,” said Grandmaster Marshall Gagne. “They're the best. I don't know if they had ever lost in a world championship before.”

Any room(s) that are not booked by reservation deadline will be released.

2. Please do not contact your hotel directly. Confusion is often created by individuals calling the hotels direct and ultimately may result in rooming list/room confirmation errors. The hotels understand how our process works and will only direct incoming calls back to us. Thank you for your cooperation with this.

3. Other Methods of Making Reservations: Making your reservations online using your online reservations webpage is the quickest and most secure way for you to book their rooms.

You will be notified by email when your confirmation number is available.

    8. Smoking vs. non smoking rooms. We have requested that the hotels in the block attempt to honor the requests for smoking/non smoking rooms. However due to the large number of rooms being used in each hotel it may not be possible for all requests to be filled. There is no guarantee that all of your rooms will be non smoking.
