🌕🍁 Our Mid-Autumn & Thanksgiving Celebration was a wonderful success!
On Saturday evening, October 3, we came together for a warm, joyful, and meaningful evening filled with celebration and gratitude!
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a time for reunion, while Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks. Reunion brings us warmth, and gratitude helps us move forward together. ❤️
A very special thank-you to all our volunteers and board members! Many of you arrived before 3:00 p.m. to set up the venue, prepare and serve food. After the celebration, you stayed behind to clean up and didn’t leave until everything was done.
You are the strength of our association! Every act of kindness and every hour you volunteer makes a difference. Thank you! ❤️
👏 Special thanks to:
Jenson Zhang — Thank you for all your hard work in planning and organizing this wonderful event!
Leo Xiang and Jin Ye and your families — Thank you for preparing such a delicious dinner for everyone!
Wenbo Zong — With his wife “leading the way,” he kept the registration, prize distribution, and other arrangements running smoothly. 😄
❤️ A very special thank-you to the Lyu family!
You travelled all the way to Saint John to join our celebration and generously donated nearly $400 worth of food, including salmon, for everyone to enjoy. Your kindness and generosity truly warmed our hearts!
And, of course, we also want to thank all the volunteers and friends whose names we may not have mentioned. Your contributions are equally important and deeply appreciated!
We were also very happy to see several new friends joining us. Welcome to our community family! We hope you will join us again and again so we can get to know one another, connect, share, and build an even warmer and more vibrant community together.
🌕🍁 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival and Happy Thanksgiving!
❤️ Thank you to everyone for your support, friendship, and continued commitment to our community!

🌕🍁 中秋感恩双节庆祝活动圆满结束！
10月3日星期六晚，我们一起度过了一个温暖、欢乐又充满感恩的夜晚！
中秋是团圆的节日，感恩节是感谢的节日。因为团圆，我们感到温暖；因为感恩，我们才能携手走得更远。❤️
特别感谢我们的志愿者和理事们！很多志愿者下午不到3点就来到现场，布置场地、准备和派发食物；活动结束后，又留下来清理场地，直到最后才离开。
你们是协会最坚实的力量！每一份默默的付出，都值得我们感谢。谢谢你们！❤️
👏 特别感谢：
张辰（Jenson）——辛苦筹划和组织这次活动！
向力、叶津两家——为大家精心准备晚餐，辛苦了！
宗文博——在老婆的“带领”下，把人员登记、奖品发放等工作安排得井井有条。😄
❤️ 特别感谢吕总一家！
你们远道专程来到圣约翰参加我们的晚会，还为大家捐赠了包括三文鱼在内、价值近 $400 的晚餐食品。你们的这份心意，让我们倍感温暖！
当然，也要感谢所有没有点到名字的志愿者和朋友。你们的付出同样重要！
我们也很高兴看到几位新朋友参加活动。**欢迎加入我们的大家庭！**希望以后大家常来，一起认识、交流、分享，共同建设一个更加温暖、更有活力的社区。
🌕🍁 中秋快乐！感恩节快乐！
❤️ 感谢每一位朋友的支持与陪伴！
