The fall of sports, the fall of art (October 30, 2023)

　October was the end, and from that hot and long summer, it quickly turned into autumn.
　Speaking of autumn, "autumn of sports" and "autumn of art".

　On Sunday, October 22, the 14th Seya Ward Sports Festa, an annual event for autumn sports in Seya Ward, was held. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued to make various efforts, such as limiting the number of people and shortening the holding time, but this year, as in last year, the whole day was held at the Seya Sports Center and Minamidai Park Ground as the venue, "YOKOHAMA Sports Recreation Festival 2023".
　Thank you for the sports association, various sports groups, planning and operation.
　I experienced "Radder Getter" and "Crolling" in a refreshing sports experience. I tried it with a light feeling, but I felt the charm that I wanted to try "one more time". And in "Challenge Physical Fitness Measurement"…I was aware of lack of exercise. After all, I realized that it was necessary to continue exercising.

　The Seya Ward Cultural Festival, an annual autumn event in Seya Ward, was held on October 21 and 22. At the foyer, there were exhibits of ikebana and cut-offs that color the season, and more than 100 performances were performed on the stage. The results of daily training and training were fully demonstrated, and both the performers and the viewers were having a good time.

　In addition, "Autumn of Art" continues. From October 31 to November 6, the "1st Seyakko Exhibition" will be held at Hydrangea Plaza where you can see the works of elementary school students.
　The Kogiku Bonsai Exhibition will be held at nagayamon Park from November 7 to 25. A lot of works made of small chrysanthemums into bonsai will be exhibited.
　It's been the perfect season for a walk. Please take a walk and come to see it.
