Thank you for everyone who came out to 2012 Sakura Sunday! As you know, the forecast for Sunday was a worrisome one-- however, despite the early morning rain, the weather cleared up in time for a beautiful afternoon at the Horiticulture Center. From the thunderous drumming and energetic choreography by the Tawamaga Taiko Drum & Dance group and the soft, mellow sound of shamisen to Harajuku and Cosplay fashion shows and martial arts demonstrations, every visitor had the opportunity to experience the Japanese culture at its best.

In the morning hours just before the commencement of Sakura Sunday, both amateur and experienced athletes will take to the streets for the 3rd Annual Cherry Blossom 5K. Online registration is now open through active.com!
