Chinese Culture Group of Greater Grand Rapids

Our next Panda Pals Event is coming up soon! On Saturday, January 27, 2007, 9 a.m. - 3 p.m., we will meet at Char Lanning’s home office. Leonard VanGelter will be teaching the Panda Pals to perform the traditional Chinese Lion Dance. They will perform the Lion Dance for CCGGGR Chinese New Years party on Tuesday evening, February 6, 2007. Char has one set of cymbals, 2 lion heads and a drum. If anyone else has similar Lion Dance supplies which we could use, please let us know.

We need RSVP’s to know how many Pals will be coming on Saturday. We need some volunteers to supply cookies, drinks, fruits and vegies for snacks. We will order pizza for lunch.
