Volunteer Spirit
Fujimae Tidal Flat is an important place for birds that fly north for the summer and south for the winter. They stop at the tidal flat to eat and rest each way. Because the tidal flat is at the mouth of three rivers, a lot of garbage washes up along the shore. Birdwatchers and local people started a beach clean-up event in 2004, and it is still going on. Last Saturday, more than 900 volunteers came to help pick up garbage. This kind of volunteer work is great, and even famous people come to help. This time, there were two basketball players from the Fighting Eagles Nagoya along with their mascot. The most famous person I remember meeting was Yoshida Saori, the great wrestler. That was about 15 years ago. (130 words) Jaremaga now comes out online on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
