Children's Day Kite and Koi Festival 2012

Kids of all ages celebrated the day on March 31, 2012 at Margaret T. Hance Park, adjacent to the Garden! New taiko drummers, folks finding out how strong they are (with some aikido training!), kites flying, shave ice...and of course, Koi all contributed to a fabulous day!

Thanks to everyone who braved the high temp and special thanks to Fushicho Daiko, Jiro Dreams of Sushi, Valley of the Sun Koi Club, Greater Phoenix Pond Society, Airi Katsuta Photography, JSA, Phoenix Bonsai Society, and everyone who contributed time to make this day happen!
