CELEBRATE YEAR OF THE DOG
By Winny Lin

Another successful Chinese New Year celebration for our South Bay chapter is in the books.
First we would like to thank our board member, Teresa O’Neill for opening her home, and then everyone(around 50)  who made the contribution from delicious food, decoration, to music, hong bao, and prizes!  
Special thanks to Shawa Zhang for brining all the talented Stanford students to engage us all in the paper folding, play music, bring lots of food, ….
Please enjoy these wonderful photos submitted by so many:

#1 CNY mandarin oranges symbolize good luck and flowers symbolize spring. Thank you, Shirley.
