The Park's Taekwondo School team (left) and the first place trophy it won after more than
three hours of intense volleyball action at the Korean Methodist Church
in Greenland in August. Team Park marched through the tournament without
a single loss on the strength of Scott Plaice's blistering serves; spiking and blocking
on the front line by Alfred Marcoux, Sean and Mike McGrail; and dig-for-every-shot speed
by Danny Plaice and Grandmaster Park. The team's victories came despite indulging
(and over-indulging) in a spectacular Korean meal before the tournament and playing in
scorching late-summer heat that didn't favor the over-40 set. Standing with the trophy are
Alfred and Scott in the back row, and in the front row Grandmaster Park, Danny, Sean and head
cheerleader Ella McGrail.
