Kanthak Karate Annual Picnic

Each year Kanthak Karate holds a family picnic and water fight. I know it's hard to believe but the students really enjoy this picnic. It's not everyday that you get to go after your instructors with water guns and soak them until they beg for mercy. Okay, they get their shots in too but it's not easy when the entire crowd of kids is chasing after you. The picnic is held at Hathaway park in Washougal. It's a great little park right on the Washougal River.

And their off!
See Ollie in the middle?

Mr. B, well respected by all of the students and well soaked by all of the students.

Noah is the one kneeling, soaking Mr. B with the water-zooka that he and Joel built.

Mr. K, in his traditional Spongebob shorts, was the cause of many water guns going dry too.

Get him!

Noah didn't want Mr. K to feel left out so he emptied a water-zooka or two on him also.

Towards the end of the fight, the two water balloon launchers were pulled out. In this picture, the two girls on the table were holding the launcher, Mr. B had just released the balloon and if you look in the upper right hand corner of the picture you can see the balloon.

The kids all reacting to the balloon that just popped/landed.
