Come celebrate the Lunar New Year in Chicago's Chinatown!!!

SHINY!!!!

?Year of the Rat, 4706 ? February 7, 2008" will include marching bands, floats, lion teams, 100' Mystical Dragon, Miss Chinatown and Miss Friendship Ambassador.

Please join us to welcome in the new year as we convey ?Gung Hay Fat Choy? (or, "Happy New Year" in English) to all in attendance.

Chinese New Year is celebrated on the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar. On that day, the Chinese are particularly thankful for having passed through another year safely, and they wish each other another prosperous and good year. They thank the gods, goddesses and their ancestors for all the blessings of the past year. It is a day for family reunions and big family dinners.

So who's up for meeting up in Chinatown with other Firefly fans?

Let's add our phone numbers to our RSVP's so that we can find each other. (If privacy is a concern, e-mail your number to the Org/Asst. Orgs, and we will send out a contact list to everyone who RSVP'd "yes.")

We'll meet in front of Won Kow.

Will this include DIM SUM at Won Kow? It's very reasonable pricewise. We might have to show up earlier than 1 though and I suppose there is a chance it would be busy on this day, so we would also need reservations.
