We will again be conducting a "Hoi Gong" (Opening Eye) ceremony for three (3) of our new Fut San Lions in the Saint Louis Chapter school on April 5, 2006 @ 7:00 pm.


This will go in conjunction with our observance of "Qing Ming Jie" (Tomb Sweeping Day).  This is an auspicious day within Chinese Culture where we honor the deeds and sacrifices of our ancestors.


It is appropriate to celebrate 'new life' when we honor our lineage.  Every student from all of the chapters and charters are invited to attend.  You are welcome to bring a guest (family or friend).  However, as before, we are not interested in bringing attention or using this as advertising for the schools.  This day is for us.

I guess I should mention something about the performance that the Prime and Alternate teams did on this day.


I must admit... you all are finally starting to surprise me.   Your dances were innovative and you remembered to focus on the personality of the Lions.  Before these three Lions are allowed to perform in public... I would recommend more practice.


It was sad to have Chun Xi' retired.  She has been very good to us and she has now taken a place of honor within the Kwoon.  Every time the other Lions practice their skills; she will be looking down on them.


Many of you have asked when we will have a Hoi Gong for our new 'Wong Fei Hung' Lion.  I plan to have that around the time of the Moon Festival.


Good job everyone!  I truly believe that SiGung Chiang would have been proud.
