Olympic wrestling champion Henry Cejudo will make two appearances on behalf of California USA Wrestling this weekend, where he will be available to sign his new book, American Victory.
On Saturday, January 30, Cejudo will make an appearance at the Preferred Outlets at Tulare, in Tulare, Calif., from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.
Preferred Outlets at Tulare is a corporate sponsor of California USA Wrestling, and the city of Tulare will be the home of the new sports arena which is being constructed for California USA Wrestling.
"The city of Tulare knows that Henry is coming, and there has been a lot of publicity in the area," said Rob Valerio of California USA Wrestling. "We will have the signing in a nice facility there."
The next morning, on Sunday, January 31, Cejudo will make an appearance at the Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino in Lemoore, Calif.
Cejudo will be welcomed at 10:00 a.m., and there will be a complimentary lunch served after his appearance at 12:00 noon. The opportunity to purchase your copy of American Victory will take place immediately following lunch.
It is going to be a busy day for California USA Wrestling at the Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino, as a number of other wrestling activities will also be going on that day.
"We will be having a mat officials clinic, a pairing officials clinic, an NCEP Bronze clinic and a California USA Wrestling national coaches clinic," said Valerio. "We are very excited to bring him in when we have a captive audience."
AMERICAN VICTORY: Wrestling, Dreams, and a Journey Toward Home by Henry Cejudo and Pulitzer Prize nominee Bill Plaschke (Celebra Hardcover Original; January 5, 2010; $24.95), is a success story depicting a family's struggle to survive, a young man's indomitable spirit, and the American Dream. It is a powerful and inspiring memoir of a young and determined American-born son of undocumented Mexican immigrants who, against all odds and expectations, achieved his dream of becoming an Olympic champion.
