Korean New Year, A Night to Remember…

   The second New Years All Year Around Event – Korean New Year – brought fifty Rotarians and their guests to a better understanding of the Korean culture.  Sponsored by the Korean-American  Association and Rotary, the evening highlights included delicious Korean delicacies, New Year’s fortunes, martial arts demonstrations and singing.  Miki Dzugan and Larry Rosenberg deserve kudos for organizing this inspiring evening of community understanding and fun.
