The Dragon's Head Blog: Chinese New Year Banquet in Winnipeg, Canada

The leaflet on the table read “The Year of the Rooster Personality – Active, amusing and popular within a crowd… Roosters are talkative, outspoken, frank, open, honest and loyal.” The room reflected this positive rooster energy as we celebrated. It was alive with laughter, conversation, love and community, and it enveloped us.

Almost 100 people were welcomed into the banquet which was held on February 4th. A diverse group of people, both young and old, friends and family, gathered to celebrate the new year and all the blessings it has to bring. There was delicious food, exciting draws and a unique gift exchange where people passed small gifts from the left or the right as the tai chi moves were read! A lot of fun was had by all. The smiles came easy. The evening was truly a success.
