51.We visited "the 41st Izumino Summer Festival" in northern Izumi district!

　July 23 is the first Saturday of elementary and junior high schools entering summer vacation. On this day, the 41st Izumino Summer Festival was held at Izumino Elementary School.
　This festival is organized by an executive committee established around Neighborhood Associations Neighborhood Association in the northern part of Izumi.
However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been canceled for the past two years, and three years ago it was canceled due to stormy weather, and this year it was the first time in four years.
　For infection control measures, it is usually limited to one day for two days, refrain from providing food and drink at stalls, etc., and only Bon Odori is implemented. In addition, at the entrance, we set up body temperature measurement and alcohol disinfection at the entrance, and I think that the executive committee and officers had more difficulties than usual.

　Thank you very much for all the members of the Executive Committee and the officers who hosted the event. Thank you very much.
