It is with an abundance of caution that TNK is cancelling the Fall Dinner this year due to the high number of COVID positive people in our community. We will be exploring other ideas for events that can bring together the Japanese Immersion community and serve as fundraising opportunities for TNK. Please join us on September 14th for our TNK meeting at Sand Lake or Virtually to talk about options moving forward.
