MDTTC December Newsletter
(By MDTTC)

Welcome to the 78th issue of the MDTTC News! As usual, there’s lots of news to report and new and ongoing programs, and we hope to see you at some of them. As usual a special thanks to MDTTC sponsors Butterfly and HW Global Foundation. Make sure to read my weekly table tennis blog – I often write about MDTTC happenings there. And if you have a nice picture taken at MDTTC, email it to me and it might make the newsletter! -Editor and Coach Larry Hodges; Publisher Wen Hsu.

A special note from the Publisher:
Happy holidays to all! After much consideration, I have decided to leave Maryland Table Tennis Center in the official capacity as a co-owner, effective January 1, 2019. It has been my pleasure to have volunteered my time and energy to serve the MDTTC community as a co-owner for the last six years. I will now move on to focus my work on HW Global Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that runs a Table Tennis Talent Development Program & an After School Program at MDTTC, and other special projects. For all your future needs and inquiries relating to MDTTC, please kindly direct them to Coach Jack Huang or Coach Cheng. And, if you are interested in helping girls and boys grow through the Olympic Sports of table tennis, I welcome you to join our efforts at HW Global Foundation! Thanks for your support! All the best, Wen Hsu
