To Make a Long Story Short, Join Us For Tea

It feels as though this should begin with a confession: It has been two years since our last tea demonstration.

Two years ago we had good momentum and enthusiasm for our projects, especially the re-energized Eureka-Kamisu Sister City committee. After a good start, things seemed to stall. Later, we had a death and illnesses in our families. We lost our enthusiasm for outreach and fell out of touch with an unraveled Sister City committee. Things still must have been going on behind the scenes, however, and this spring we received a surprising phone call from the Eureka mayor's office that they had received a letter from the city of Kamisu.

It is a wonderful feeling to know that the relationship has been re-energized, and along with it our zeal for sharing the Tea Ceremony with the public. Please join us at the Humboldt State University Library Fishbowl on Wed., July 1, from noon to 1:00 p.m. We will share tea and an update on the Sister City association.
