Special thanks for all the board of directors, schools, churches, clubs, community leaders and volunteers for their year round of hard work.

首先要謝謝二個協會的幹部們奔波忙碌、不辭瑣碎、繁雜、盡心盡力推動，使我們這大家族能團圓團聚在一起，備感溫馨，我們有老樹、新枝、嫩葉展放在坦帕灣的春風中，欣欣向榮的與其他社團屹立著。

還有校長們、老師們親自教導、巨細糜遺、辛勤付出培育幼苗，在此我們代表在地的家長們，感激您們的春風化雨。

每個社團的教練與義工們在這幾代人同堂的日子裡，有了您們的努力展現了當地華人的無比驕傲，使得來賓們與有榮焉，在此深表謝意。

謝謝二個協會的志工們，點點滴滴的串成這協會的光環，瞻前顧後的付出，也就是穩固本會的基礎。

As you can tell SACA & CAAT board of directors are working very hard to showcase Chinese New Year Festival here in Tampa Bay. We invite everyone to come to our events and we encourage every member to help us promote these awesome events.
每一位親愛的會員，也就是我們華人社區團體的親善大使外交官，請大家邀約更多的左隣右舍來參加共同迎新的活動。

We wish everyone a happy, joyful and prosperous new year.
讓我們攜手共進新的２０１５年，願大家身體健康、美夢成真。

一帆風順　、　二龍騰照　、　三羊開泰　、　四季平安　、　五福臨門
六六大順　、　七星高照　、　八方財來　、　九九同心　、　十全十美

SACA Members and Friends

Happy New Year!

SACA and the City of Largo will be hosting the Chinese New Year celebration at Largo Central Park on Saturday Feb. 1, 2014 (10 a.m to 4 p.m.). This will be the largest and only out-door Chinese New Year celebration in the Tampa Bay area. In addition to Chinese crafts / food vendors, there will be lion and dragon dances, traditional Chinese performances, and children games. This celebration is free and open to the public. Please tell your friends (SACA and non-SACA members) about this event. Official flyers (both English and Chinese versions) are available.

In addition to Chinese food / craft vendors and performances, USF medical students will provide free health (blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar) screening. For the children, the Largo Central Park mini-train will be running. Furthermore, there will be a Chinese Yo-Yo demonstration and workshop for all.

It is tradition to wait 100 days before naming a panda cub. SACA has adapted a “Panda” (see below). Join our Facebook on the naming contest. The name will be revealed on the Chinese New Year celebration in Largo Central Park. Furthermore, there will be a photo booth in which attendees can take photos with the Panda.

Come and join us on Saturday Feb. 1, 2014 @ Largo Central Park to celebration Chinese New Year. Again, this event is free and open to the public.
