秋の大掃除今年はコミュニティセンターの建物とガーディナースホールの清掃に20人が参加しました。 センターの建物をきれいに保つのに皆が力を尽くしました。 特に少林寺拳法のクラスの人々に感謝をします。クラスの人々はホールをすっかりきれいにするだけでなく、ゆるんだ床のタイルをなおしました。どうもありがとうございました。

文化刺繍グループ文化刺繍グループは月曜日の午後コミュニティセンターで集まっています。 文化刺繍はよく「文化」と短く称されてもいますが、特別な針を用いて絹に似たレイヨンの糸を使う刺繍の一種で百年の歴史をもつものです。 文化グループがコミュニティセンターに寄付してくれた数点の作品はホリデイフェアに出されます。 この文化グループのことを更に知りたいという興味があればコミュニティセンターにEメイル [email protected] または、電話(650-343-2793)で連絡してください。
