[16th meeting] We toured Kirigaoka Bazaar!

　On Friday, July 7, we toured the Kirigaoka Bazaar while the summer sun shines brightly.
　This bazaar is held once a month in the parking lot in front of Kirigaoka Post Office as a place for local people to interact and gather through shopping.
　Locally harvested vegetables, freshly baked bread, handmade items, etc. are on sale, and many customers had already gathered at the opening at 11 am. Some of the staff and customers were also from India who live in Kirigaoka.
　Midori Ward has been adopted as a challenge course in the Midori Ward Regional Challenge Challenge Proposal Project, which supports local activities.
"This is the third year of the event, but it has become completely established in the community. There are many people who can come to enjoy it. "Said Mr. Tazawa, the representative. In December of last year, elementary school students from Kirigaoka Gakuen Elementary School opened a store as part of their class, and it was an opportunity to interact with local people.
　It is a place where a wide range of generations, from elementary school students to the elderly, gather, and we hope that it will continue as a multicultural exchange event in which India people participate.
