BUDDHIST TEMPLE TURNS ONE HUNDRED!
WE ARE SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR WONDERFUL RESPONSE TO THESE EVENTS;
ALL REGISTRATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED. THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
UPDATE: NEW LOCATION
Friday, September 18th 6:00pm, Jr YBA Bonfire NOW AT LA JOLLA SHORES
The fun will continue but just in a different location.
Due to a large event that is happening this weekend at Mission Bay, our bonfire location is now moved to La Jolla Shores (https://maps.app.goo.gl/iF1gcorRhoCZ5tsn9). We will be setting up by the fire pit just north of the main lifeguard tower.
Sorry for the last minute change. There is a parking lot, but it often fills up. Street parking in and around the surrounding neighborhood is also available.
We have sent this to all the people who have .signed up but just wanted to let all of you know as well and pass along if you know anyone who might stop by.
Thanks, and in Gassho,
Organizing Committee
P.S. If you have any questions or if you need help locating us on Friday, please feel free to contact Kimberly via text/call @ 559-999-8917 or Lisa via text/call @ 619-699-9397.
