We must say a Very Special Thanks to NORIKO and her talented students!

Their performances and families made the day!

The Grand Finale was a once-in-a-lifetime event for all of us.

Thank you to all who cooked, cleaned, served, bussed, played, sang, flowered, hydrated, set up, took down, and gave us our well-deserved desserts!
