JapanFest was fun! It was a smaller event at the GW student union for about 300. They served excellent bento boxes with chicken katzu and nice oshinkos. Nice to be fed (only other event that feeds us is the lions club and that’s usually hot dogs!). They had lots of volunteers to help us bring in stuff from the street into the building. The Ttrak was well received by the mainly college students. Also appreciated by a number of Japanese students at GW. They had us right in the middle of the table area and we got from and center seats for the taiko drumming troupe, koto players, and marshal art performances. We were only set up for 3 hours but worth it. The Japanese cultural club was very appreciative of us attending!
