Last week I attended the CBC (Citizens for a Better Community) and the Fremont Rotary Club Moon Festival Celebration. Moon Festival celebrations have been held throughout Asia for well over 1,000 years. This holiday is a time to reflect upon the bounty of the summer harvest, the fullness of the moon, and the myth of the immortal moon Goddess, Chang O, who lives in the moon. The Moon Festival is often compared to a “Chinese Thanksgiving” because of its spirit of gratitude and its inclusion of abundant food including the popular moon cakes. Citizens for a Better community and the Fremont Rotary Club are both exceptional service oriented non profit organizations.
