Lincoln Summer Nights 9/14/23

      With the intense heat of the summer months finally ending, September’s Lincoln Summer Nights was much more relaxing with just as much fun. This month's theme was a multi-cultural celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival with activities like paper lantern making, elder story sharing, and performances from the Destiny Muhammad Trio and the Noble Towers senior dance troupe. Mooncakes and Korean songpyeon rice cakes were shared and enjoyed as a tradition during the Mid-Autumn celebration. And as usual, there was no shortage of loud and passionate karaoke. 

      MHACC's booth was right in the middle of all the action. We handed out flyers with general information about our support groups, education programs, and apps. We also gave out CalHope baseball-themed stress balls, science kits, and the always popular fidget bracelets. The kits from Science is Elementary included a compass, pencils, markers, and tape, as well as instruction booklets teaching the science of sundials. These kits are a great hands-on experience for young children to learn about various topics through fun and simple experiments. Overall, it was a fun and successful night for us, and we hope to see you in your costumes for October’s Halloween-themed Lincoln Summer Nights! 


隨著酷熱的夏天終於結束,九月的林肯夏夜活動變得更加輕鬆,和充滿樂趣。 本月的主題是多元文化的中秋節慶祝活動,包括紙燈籠製作、長者故事分享,以及命運穆罕默德三重奏和貴族塔高級舞蹈團的表演等活動。 中秋慶祝活動期間,共享月餅和韓國鬆餅是一種傳統。 像往常一樣,現場也不乏喧鬧熱情的卡拉 OK。

    MHACC 的展位位於所有活動的中心。 我們分發了傳單,其中包含有關我們的支援小組、教育計劃和手機軟件的資訊。 我們還贈送了 CalHope 棒球主題的壓力球、科學套件和一直流行的手鐲。 Science is Elementary 的套件包括指南針、鉛筆、記號筆和膠帶,以及教授日晷科學的說明書。 這些套件為幼兒提供了很好的實踐體驗,可以透過有趣而簡單的實驗來了解科學。 總的來說,這對我們來說是一個有趣而成功的夜晚,我們也希望看到您穿著服裝參加十月的萬聖節主題林肯夏夜!
