A great party to welcome in the Year of the Rat with over 400 dignitaries and guests on February 22, 2008 at the Regency Palace Restaurant.  It was a fun filled evening that started with a Champagne Reception to the music of a string quartet Zalin Van Dorn, then with a traditional lion dance of Jing Woo Martial Arts & Athletics Association.  We also awarded our annual scholarships to students from Bow Valley College, Mount Royal College, SAIT Polytechnic and The Univeristy of Calgary.  Please see bios of awards recipients on our Community News tab.

Thank you for your attendance and support.  We look forward to welcoming the year of the Ox in 2009.
