Ethnic Festival a Big Success I want to thank all the people who helped to make the Ethnic Festival a successful event. We had good weather, good volunteers, and good results! I salute you for your hard work, dedication, and the many hours you put in to make it happen! As the team lead of the Ethnic Festival, I learned many lessons in running the show and found improvements that can be made for next year. Our booth was very efficient this year because we had 2 windows each for ordering and pick-up. At the next general meeting we will find out what our net revenue is. A Volunteer Appreciation Party is being planned – more details to come. Maraming Salamat Po, Saeamat Kimo, Gracias, Gratzie, Shokran, Merci, Danke Schön, Arigato Gozaimasu, Khawp Khun Kha, Day Fon, Terima Kasih, Kam Sia, Tángeyoo! – Lucila Rider
