You are cordially invited to the 2025 Annual Meeting and Potluck on Friday, March 14 from 6:00 to 8:30 pm at the Berkeley Methodist United Church, 1710 Carleton Street, Berkeley. The church is at the SE corner of Carleton and McGee Ave.
Please bring an appetizer or a salad or a side dish to serve 6, plus something for yourself to drink. The board will supply main course dishes, dessert, tea and punch.
There will also be a silent auction at the annual potluck diner. If you have something you can donate to the auction, it will be greatly appreciated. We are trying to raise money for the upcoming student exchange and the Fern Harger Student Exchange Scholarship Fund. Items that have sold the best are:
Wine or alcoholic beverage, coffee, Japanese items, and coupons for a favorite restaurant.
We hope to see you at our annual meeting and potluck diner.
2025 Student Exchange - Sakai Students Coming to Berkeley
Sakai students will be visiting Berkeley August 1-6, 2025 as part of our Berkeley-Sakai Student Exchange Program. Currently we do not have nformation on the Sakai students who will be coming but typically 5-6 students come. They will be staying with host families for the duration of their stay in Berkeley. Students and their families who participated in our 2024 Student Exchange to Sakai volunteered to be host families. However not every family can host. Association and host families will come up with activities for the students.
If you are interested in hosting or participating in this years program, please contact
