The entertainment portion of the evening begins with Kenshikai Carols written by Annika.

Annika even wrote a carol about our gracious MC, Senpai John Rennie, titled "Senpai Rennie the Comic Sandan". Senpai Lynne is seen here helping Annika sing.

Senpai John Rennie serves up his unique and sometimes inadvertantly spontaneous brand of humor.

As the set up for one of Senpai Rennie's comedy skits, he asks Jeff and Kiyomi to have a conversation in Japanese.

Now Senpai Jeff must teach Yannick how to have the same conversation in Japanese.

And Kiyomi must teach Marco.

Shihan enjoying the entertainment.

Charmaine and Laura and Senpai LaVallee are contestants on "Kenshikai or Kitchen!"

Since Senpai LaVallee was too good at this game, Senpai Rennie assigned him a "handicap"...Senpai Eric.

Senpai Rennie, in an effort to stall while technical difficulties in the video presentation are dealt with, asks Senpai Shantanu, Senpai Eric, Senpai Lynne and Senpai Bruce to perform an improvisational story.

Geoffrey reads an amusing Australian poem. It is Geoffrey's last day. He's moving back to Australia. We all wish him and his family the best of luck.

Shihan thanks all for attending and wishes everyone a happy holiday.
