These events not only set a great prelude for future operation of Buddhist Town, but also resulted in many young members displayed interest in future participation. In response, a Youth Group was established. It will be an avenue for young people to meet and exchange ideas! On September 17, the Youth Group task force had its first gathering by Holy Heavenly Lake, during which a lot of lively discussions, laughter and ideas were exchanged. Buddhist Town will be opened to serve the community, and to provide fun, educational and entertaining activities. We welcome all young people to join the task force and assist in developing ideas and programs. Buddhist Town also offers community service opportunities for young students. If you are interested in participating, please contact Susan or Kay at 626-639-8181.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9544472 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9544472\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab27722 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ab27722\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Fall Gardening Gathering\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f3b858b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f3b858b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-816d8b5 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"816d8b5\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c15f301 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c15f301\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-1-e1765854467241.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-81510\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-1-e1765854467241.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-1-e1765854467241-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a26539a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"a26539a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-016cd1a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"016cd1a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" src=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-2-e1765854495400.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-81511\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-2-e1765854495400.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cabuddhists.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Newsletter-Sep-2023-2-e1765854495400-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18b9d63 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"18b9d63\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8cdd813 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8cdd813\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"1471607380\" class=\"dmNewParagraph\" data-element-type=\"paragraph\" data-version=\"5\"><p class=\"text-align-center\"><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 As Fall sets in and the heat subsides, the large lawn by the lake is turning into a beautiful rich green carpet, and the lake shore is begging for weeding and renewal before the arrival of winter.

It was a happy surprise to discover that we have a neighbor that specializes in 3D construction printing. Winsun Technology Inc. is located in Hesperia on Lemon Street, only 5 minutes away from Buddhist Town. President Yihe Ma came and gave us a very impressive presentation showing buildings the company has completed in Dubai, China, Oman and Qatar. We also took a tour of their operation, during which Mr. Ma personally demonstrated the printing machine in action. It was quite eye opening! Mr. Ma also offered to print some landscape furniture at Buddhist Town according to our designs, and welcomed volunteers to participate. Bravo!
