4. CMH Family Night Saturday Nov. 16, 2013

Planning is under way for a fun CMH Family Night on Saturday, November 16, for the entire Mission family, including adults and children.

The highlights of this event will be Dipavali fireworks, regional food stalls (cooked by our very own members), regional folk dances and all members dressed in ethnic wear of various regions. We will be forming teams of different regions in food and cultural categories, and members from any region can join the regional team of their choice, they are not limited to the region they belong.

Even before the announcement, the buzz is making the circles by word of mouth and we are getting an enthusiastic response from our members. Think about the region you want to represent and in what way, and be ready to sign up for the same on next Sunday.
