New Year's Party on Jan. 23 2016
This year's New Year Party was also attended by the Togo ambassador and his wife, it certainly offered a great opportunity for culture exchange. Along with food kindly prepared by some of Kisarazu's foreign residents (from China, South Korea, India, Togo, Russia, Australia), there was also some Sushi and it was enjoyed by all. Japanese drums, Yosakoi dances and Philippines dances fascinated us and a Korean song, cute kids and cheer dancing received a big round of applause. Additionally, we had a trial-experience section (tea ceremony, flower arrangement and origami) where we could introduce some foreigners to some Japanese culture. The Venue felt a little crowded with over 200 participants.

This year, about 80 members joined us to dance in the Kisarazu Bon Festival "Yassai Mossai". Of those 80, almost 40 members were foreign, and everyone tried really hard. This year - for the first time - our team won a prize!
We finished second overall and received a plaque, trophy and certificate! Thanks to everyone who helped organise and joined in the event. It was a memorable night for all of our members and we should be very proud!
