Japan Day
Each year Edgren High School hosts a Japan day. Local Japanese folks come and set up booths for us Americans. Some of the things that we've done at Japan day are: making a paper kite, making pottery, watching Taiko drummers, dressing in kimonos/samurai gear, getting name written in Japanese, looking and Japanese wooden masks, and flowers, and much more. It's a great way to get to experience so many aspects of the Japanese culture. In return we Americans host an American day once a year for the Japanese. There is also a food booth outside where you can buy yummy yakisoba (noodles) and yakitori (chicken on a stick).
