诗一首:《贺华盟金秋烧烤盛会》
《贺华盟金秋烧烤盛会》
– 邱朝欣
轻烟起,篝火旺,
最馋湘里羊肉串;
拔河赛,哨声急,
巾帼称霸绿茵场;
打陀螺,跳皮筋,
重温儿时青石板;
交新朋,叙旧情,
金秋凉亭不觉寒。

(邱朝欣撰稿)11月23日,又是感恩节。清晨,阳光灿烂,草坪中的露珠像快乐的精灵在微风中闪烁。空气里不时飘来淡淡的炸火鸡的香味。奥斯汀感恩节火鸡慢跑活动将在这里举行。由 ThunderCloud 三明治连锁店发起的这项活动已经进入第二十七个年头,成为奥斯汀的节日传统。这项活动每年都吸引了两万多人参加,是感恩节期间全美最大的慢跑活动之一。多年来,这项活动已筹集了三百多万美元的善款,用于帮助无家可归者,难民,和低收入市民。
By Noah Liu, April 15, 2018 Two dozen ACAN members helped pick up trash and plant wildflowers today at Commons Ford Municipal Park. Most of the volunteers were children. Together, our volunteers managed to pick up 3 bags of trash and 1 bag of recyclables and planted an entire bucket of seeds.
南国四月,已是晚春时节,琼花虽尽,却有牡丹的新始吐芳。4月22日,由奥斯汀华裔联盟(华盟)举办地「春季舞蹈联欢会」,无疑是华盟诸多活动中一朵最璀璨的富贵花。
[撰稿 涌波 春平; 摄影 华盟义工] 一年前,当华盟决定筹办2019奥斯汀首届中华文化节之后,理事会就开始了各种筹备工作。华盟根据 需要,设立了不同的小组,分别负责各项活动。风味小吃美食街,新春游园活动和中国特色礼品售卖是 其中三个重头戏。
[Noah Liu] Austin Chinese-American Network partnered with Texas Outdoor Family, a program under Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to host a private camping workshop for members on 9/7-8 at Inks Lake State Park. Our 18 participating families learned important camping and outdoor skills such as setting up a campsite, building a fire, and cooking outdoors. Participants also had the chance to go kayaking, hiking, fishing, stargazing and geocaching within the park. Our families all enjoyed the event greatly, especially the children! We hope that we can organize a similar event sometime in the future.
