Meet our Cherry Blossom Fair Team!
Tick-Tock! As the countdown to our 2023 Cherry Blossom Fair continues, we can hardly contain our excitement! This year’s fair is the result of the tireless efforts of an amazing team of individuals who have poured their hearts and souls into bringing this event to life.
We want to take a moment to introduce you to these incredible people – talented, hardworking, and determined individuals who have dedicated an immense amount of time and effort to make this fair a reality. Despite facing numerous challenges along the way, they remained committed to their goals and approached every obstacle with boundless energy, positivity, and a great sense of humor.
We also want to acknowledge the loved ones of our team members, who provided them with unwavering support and encouragement throughout the entire process. This event wouldn’t have been possible without their invaluable contributions. It’s because of their support that our team was able to work tirelessly, including during late nights and weekends.
Whether it rains or shines, we’re excited to offer you a day of fun activities and mouth-watering international cuisine. But what we are looking forward to the most is the sight of our community coming together and enjoying the fair with big smiles on their faces.
If you spot our hardworking team members hustling around on the day of the fair, please give them a big round of applause or simply say hello. Your appreciation and encouragement will mean the world to them and will make all their hard work and efforts worthwhile!
