SAVE THE DATE: Come Celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival in Stanton on 9/15

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

I’m excited to invite you to join us for our Fifth Annual Mid-Autumn Festival coming up on Sunday, September 15, from 10 am – 12 Noon at Stanton Central Park.

In Vietnamese culture, the mooncake symbolizes health, happiness, luck, and wealth. The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Tết Trung Thu, dates back over 1,000 years and was originally a harvest celebration that marked the end of the summer growing season. In Vietnam, it has evolved into a joyous celebration for families and children, complete with colorful lanterns, lion dances, and mooncakes. 

I hope you’ll bring your family and friends and enjoy the traditional live performances, plus complimentary lanterns, snacks, and, of course, delicious mooncakes. My district staff will also be on hand to provide legislative updates.

I’m very grateful to the City of Stanton for once again providing this year’s location at Stanton Central Park, as well as to our partners, Stanton Councilmember Hong Alyce Van and Julie Diep and the OC Autism Foundation, for their ongoing leadership and support.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our office at 714-525-2342, or email scott.do@sen.ca.gov. I hope to celebrate with you on September 15!

Best,
