NSC provides volunteers for beer booth at the Mountain View Obon Festival every year. We need a few more volunteers for July 18-19! The beer booth is fun and you get to meet lots of people. Most importantly, the proceeds will benefit the Mountain View Buddhist Temple. To see the available shifts, click here.
The Obon is a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the spirits of one’s ancestors. The festival has been celebrated at the Mountain View Buddhist Temple’s current location since the temple was completed in 1957. The Obon is the Mountain View Buddhist Temple’s biggest event of the year.
