Autumn is in full swing and what better way to
have spent a perfect October evening than at West Richmond's 16th Annual
Lantern Festival! In my opinion, this year's festival was the best turn out
I've seen in the past few years. The sense of community that I felt seeing
everyone was so neat! All the credit goes to the community members who
volunteered their time and skills; Some of the popular attractions were bobbing
for apples, face painting, balloon animal making and a huge percussion jam
session. Not to mention the actual lantern march which always looks so cool! At
Jr OSC we usually make lanterns with the kids out of milk jugs, but I was
impressed to see there were a lot of homemade lanterns as well! With hot
chocolate and cookies to finish off the night, I don't know anyone who could
have gone home without a smile on their face :)
On a side note, I wish I had taken pictures, but unfortunately, my hands were
tied... Because I was tying balloon animals. Get it?
Until next time!
