HAPPY NEW YEAR OF THE HORSE!
The Chinese New Year 2026 marks the Year of the Fire Horse (Bing Wu), a rare and powerful combination occurring every sixty years, signaling dynamic energy, passion,
innovation, and transformative change, with themes of bold action, courage, and breaking from old patterns, often seen as a year of heightened activity, risk-taking,
and progress, but also potential chaos, especially with its fiery, red-hued energy symbolizing vitality and good fortune.
2026 marks the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Black Dragon Fighting Society. That is why we will assemble at this place. To pay homage to those who have gone
before and shown us the way. To remember those who have fallen and honor those who serve.
