In October 2008 the Martial Arts Preservation Society headed by Master Allan Goldberg of the Action Sports Karate International Hall of Fame began its multi year project of documenting the greatest martial arts masters from each of the fifty states.  Since Delaware was the first state Master Goldberg began here.

In October masters from the state of Delaware gathered in Dover to hold a two day expo of Seminars, lectures and video documentation of each master’s particular area of expertise.

At the conclusion of the weekend’s festivities a banquet was held to honor the 2008 inductees for the Action Sports Karate International Hall of Fame.  The Korean Martial Arts Institute was honored to have a total of six inductees for the year 2008.
