Like most things in life, if you don't maintain it, it will not run in top shape, it will tear and break. It is true for our cars, houses, our bodies and it is also true for the kwoon. Every year, on the week kids return to school, we take a break from classes and embark in kwoon maintenance. This year the maintenance week is from August 31st to September 5th.
As I said, it is important to keep the kwoon in a top condition and this week allows us to do so. Some years we have bigger projects and some years we focus on cleaning.
However there is another aspect to this week that can even have a bigger impact on us. Taking care of the kwoon will also enhance the connection to the place. It will make you feel you belong, that this is your home. It is also a great time to interact with fellow students (and instructors) in a more informal matter.
I highly encourage everyone to participate. You will not regret it.
