The JSS Staff and Board Members who helped out at the JSS booth that day remember being amazed by the dedication and hard work of the numerous volunteers who donated their time on a summer weekend to help raise over $2000 for JSS.<br \/>\nLed by Rieko Chao, Junko Harada, and Keiko Tanaka, the volunteers cooked, cleaned, and served from the early hours of the morning until late into the evening. Many volunteers stayed longer than they had originally agreed to work and refused to take breaks.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5766 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-300x225.jpeg\" alt=\"Volunteers cooking pancakes\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/jss.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/webIMG_0796-01-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><br \/>\nThe grilled rice balls (yaki onigiri), pancakes (okonomiyaki), and octopus balls (takoyaki) that the volunteers prepared were incredibly popular with the festival-goers and everything was sold out by the early evening.<br \/>\nThank you to all the volunteers who made the event a success and all the members and friends of JSS who supported JSS by visiting the booth.<br \/>\nWe hope to see you all again next year!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Halloween candy has been given out to the trick-or-treaters and the stores are already filled with Christmas decorations.
