As November comes around, it’s time again for the Seika Festival! With over 35,000 visitors last year, the festival is far and away the biggest event of the year, and despite a bit of rain and clouds, it went off without a hitch this year!
11月の後半は、精華町の一大行事、せいか祭りの時期ですよ。今年は少し曇りでしたが、本当にいい祭りになったと思います!
Like last year, I was posted at the Seika global Network booth, where we held a small international photo contest, using photos from out sister city, Norman, Oklahoma. We had the kids and their parents pick their favorite picture and then handed out balloons. We also had information about Seika Global Network and Norman up, and a lot of people seemed really interested to learn more about our sister city!
Inside the Suikeien were different dance performances, covering every genre from hip-hop to cheer squad. Additionally, all kinds of different bands performed at the Music Street concert, though my favorite was probably a group that looked like regular salary men, but rocked like Spinal Tap.
水景園のなかでダンス出演もありました。ヒップホップからチアリーディングまであらゆるダンスを見れました。そして、けいはんなミュージックストリートで色々なバンドが演奏しました。特に、一見普通のサラリーマン風のグループのロック音楽演奏がすばらしかったです。
The whole festival was a lot of fun this year too, and it seems like many kids and adults were interested in our sister-city. Here’s hoping everyone who came out had a great time and that next year is just as fun!
せいか祭りの全部が今年もとても楽しくて、たくさんの子どもと大人にノーマン市に興味を持っていただいたようです。来てくださった人も楽しくできたらと思いますので、来年も楽しみましょう!
