Kalgoorlie
is the largest mining town in Western Australia, and gateway to one of the wolrd's largest gold
deposits (rivalled only by South Africa's deposits). The local population of the combined
Kalgoorlie-Boulder area is approximately 50,000.
As this was our school's first time to Kalgoorlie, we decided to hold an official shaolin kung fu show.
To our knowledge, there was no other kung fu school established in Kalgoorlie at the time (1997).
This probably contributed to the headlines we made in the local newspapers.
