From Christmas Program Committee

The Christmas Pageant was held on Saturday, December 20th with huge success. You must have had a wonderful time watching the adorable musical put on by the Sakura Class and a variety of songs performed and instruments played by the younger children. The many handmade ornaments added to the very colorful and festive look of the Christmas tree. Thank you very much for taking the time to make those memorable ornaments during this busy holiday season. We are sure that your children were excited to receive them as gifts!

We would like to report that we received generous donations from the following parties:
- Coffee by Starbucks
- Gummy and Mame mix nuts by JFC
- Coffee beans by Jones Coffee Roasters, Pasadena
- Cookies by Claro's Italian Market
- Baked goods by the parents; Mrs. Yumiko Tayler (Renge class), Mrs. Kei Ogawa (Kiku class), Mrs. Mihoko Kawakami (Kiku class), Mrs. Nagisa Muratani (Sumire class), and Mrs. Naoko Okamoto (Ume class)

To all of the volunteers and those who donated items, thank you very much for making this year's Christmas Pageant memorable and a success. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to you all.

The number of volunteers who help customers with tickets and those without tickets may vary throughout the event.
