Bon Dance Festival
"The Bon Dance is a very traditional Japanese event. Through this event, families and students are able to experience and enjoy the cultural diversity that is part of our school. There will be international food booths and game booths sponsored by the Parents Association for the enjoyment of everybody who comes to the festival. It is open to the public and everyone is welcome! This is the last school event for the students celebrate their good work throughout the year, and both parents and students enjoy themselves in a relaxed atmosphere."

Aloha e Keiko-san. This is Atsuko who met you at the movie event in China Town. I and other Japanese dancers are going to dance Hula with some Japanese songs at Natsu Matsuri. I am looking forward seeing you then!
ReplyDeleteHi Atsuko-san! That's wonderful! I was wondering if you would be there. I'm hoping to attend!
