To those who visited the Israeli Compound in the last couple weeks, they can attest that the walls are bear and have nothing on them yet…the only three things hanging on the wall right now is John Clarke’s Combat Wrestling banner , the FIGHT silver sign and the SUB Combat Fitness banner.

We have been very busy while settling in in this new location in the last 2 weeks, first Garret’s IPTT course, then Coop came in last weekend for the Combat Fitness Instructor Certification and then I just started yesterday the FIGHT Instructor Certification. So painting and cosmetics have taken a slow burner mode for now…but, the more I embrace this new location as my new home , and the more sugestions I am hearring from my people about ideas of how to make the place look real good , the more I am beggining to have a  vision of how I want the place to look.

I have decided to go with the IDF Olive Green color as the theme as far as the dominant color in the school. Yellow and Black will be the accent colors. One wall will have 12 Quotes on it. The number 12 represents the 12 Tribes of Israel. I have 12 quotes in mind already, two latin ones, one Hebrew , one Native American and eight in English. That wall is the wall I am the most ecxited about doing…I have started to work on it personally, with the same design we had at the other school with the joint compound. I am a third finish with that…next week I will finish the design and paint the wall (it is 50 feet long and 20 feet tall) first with a coat of primer and then the Olive Green will go on the wall. 8 feet and above, the 12 quotes will go on the wall in a total shuffle so none of the quotes are in order. Some quotes will be in big letters, some in medium and some in small…

after I am done with that wall the wall by the entrance is next, thats the wall with the 2 giant garage doors (they go all the way up to the 20 feet ceilling. That wall will be Olive Green as well but the Garage doors will be different. I have a airbrush artist (www.flawless-customs.com) that trains here….he will make those two garage doors look BADASS!!!  Stu…that same guy will work on the hood of my El Camino ;-)
