Here’s a quote from okikukai.jp:
Jack Summers, Quincy Massachusetts USA Okikukai Promoted to 9th Dan. Summers Sensei met the stringent time qualification standards in November 2006. On January 28, 2007 the Okikukai Board of Promotions decided upon promoting Summers Sensei to 9th Dan as the first order of business at the board meeting in the New Year. It was unanimously approved. Congratulations Summers Sensei.

It was a large and enjoyable gathering with Jack and the various schools. Food and drink were superb. Glad to have been able to attend.
looks great… few comments.
Should Capitalize Sensei and Dan
Instructors should have name and teaching and belt rank
ie: John Perrone
Shihan, 5th Dan
Russell Centamore
Renshi, 6th Dan
Same with Jack, Hanshi, 9th Dan
It is a way to give Credentials to the school.
