There is some very big and sad news
with the Tozan which we are still
absorbing. Malaspina College has
advised us that they want us to move
as they want our site for student
housing. Since giving us that news
they have recently clearcut the
approach and surround of the site.

We do not have to physically move

TOZAN NEWS

till 2006 and will be firing thru
2005. In fact 2005 is our 10th
anniversary and we are planning spe-
cial programs and firings which will
be announced in the future. We
hope to have increased participation
in future firings and to see many of
our old friends.

There are still 2 firings planned for
this year, August 6 thru 14th and
October 1st thru 9th. Please contact
Gari Whelon at whelon@telus.net
for more information on that, and or
check in to the Tozan web site for
