There are many members of the Armory who have been here for years that will know Felipe Jose and his family. Felipe is arguably one of the reasons The Armory is here today! When I first moved to the Jupiter area, Felipe had a martial arts school in Jupiter and invited me to come train. There I met Felipe, Scott Duquette, John Benegas and Todd Alofs. (By the way, Todd Alofs was in a very gay black gi...doing Kenpo katas at the time....it was very very disturbing.)

Felipe was a Police Officer at the time in the Town of Jupiter. He also had some other things at the time going on and running a martial arts school at the time was challenging so he was not able to keep
the school open. Somehow, he talked me into opening a small 1,000 sq ft. training facility in Jupiter... and that’s how The Armory came to be.

Felipe was instrumental in the early days of The Armory in coordinating construction, teaching classes, delivering Chinese food....whatever needed to be accomplished. Stephanie and Jackie were also here quite a bit during those times as well. Helping with painting, cleaning... whatever needed to be done. They were great kids and always a huge help.

If you are able to attend the Charity Event on Thursday, October 29th, please do.

If you can help in another way...please let me know. There will be a silent auction, if you can donate something that you think may help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hope to see you there!!!!

Joe
