TOMODACHI – HOLIDAY TEA

On Wednesday, December 12, 2018, JASH members and guests joined together for the annual Tomodachi Holiday Tea at “Bakery and Table” restaurant. It was a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of the busy holiday season and relax with friends while enjoying delicious refreshments.

The festive gathering started off with a fun game called “Name the Singer” led by Tomodachi Committee Chair Mrs. Kazuko Love and her husband Chad, where attendees were asked to guess the singers for various holiday tunes. The winners took home prizes of wine and other goodies.
