Special Events Scheduled to Coincide with the 2022 Dai Token Ichi

[Keichodo]

Greetings Sword Friends!

 

Now that entry into Japan has become simplified, I hope many of you are considering taking in the Dai Token Ichi for 2022 on November 18, 19, and 20!

 

As in the past, I would like to invite overseas visitors to participate in two additional events that have become traditions!

 

Tokyo DTI Additional Events

 

On Wed. Nov. 16th, there will be a sword study and dinner party again in Ginza at the Italian Restaurant Cinq (same venue as previous years).  Location is quite convenient.  Sword study is yen 5,000 (for the venue) and the dinner party will be sponsored by Hisashi Saito of Seikodo. Once again, the date will be Wednesday Nov. 16th.  Arrival time will be from 5:30 p.m. for the sword study. Discussion of swords at 6:30 and the dinner party will follow the sword study at around 7:00 ... Attendance by advance reservation only. Please notify Robert Hughes (keichodo@yahoo.com) as soon as possible if you will attend!

 

Friday Nov. 18th Yakatabune Tokyo Bay Cruise.....Arrangements: This event is tentatively scheduled for Friday, November 18th, but final determination to proceed will depend on the number of interested participants.  As in the past, participants would leave from in front of DTI at 6:30 p.m. Cruise to start from 7:00 p.m. Participation by advance reservation only.  Notification to attend is also a commitment to pay if event is held...Cost yen 11,000 per participant (sales tax has gone up to 10%). Please notify Robert Hughes (keichodo@yahoo.com) as soon as possible! Organizer reserves the right to cancel the event if the number of willing participants does not reach 20....

 

Let's all dine, drink, and sail again mates!

 

Best

Robert

The cruise was a highlight of my trip to Japan. You shouldn't miss this opportunity.

Don’t miss it guys, I went three times to DTI, each time the Yakatabune was the apex of DTI.
