Join us for great food and games with YAPA members and the families of Dillon International! As role models to all children, we have a special part to play in the live of these adopted children from Asia. We’ve got a variety of games to break the ice and get to know our little friends.

We’ll be grilling hot dogs and hamburgers and even Korean BBQ. There are a couple of tennis courts and the North Pointe Aquatic Center to cool off. Holloway Park is located at 335 Holloway Road off Baxter between Manchester and Clayton in Ballwin. http://www.ballwin.mo.us/index.php?PageID=93&SubID=101

Please email info@yapastl.org to RSVP so we can prepare enough food. If you have a grill and/or would like to volunteer, please email info@yapastl.org

See you there!

YAPA is offering its members a very special opportunity to attend a free seminar, Restorative Justice, sponsored by the Missouri Asian-American Bar Association (MAABA) and the Japanese American Society of St. Louis eligible for 1.2 CLE credits! The event is being held at Greensfelder and is FREE. Greensfelder is also providing lunch for attendees. Professor John O. Haley, an expert in Japanese law, and a Washington University professor, and Bonnie Miller, of the St. Louis County Juvenile Court system and member of the Missouri Restorative Justice Coalition will discuss Prof. Haley’s published article entitled “Cooperative Communities Reduce Crime.” Read it here at: http://magazine.wustl.edu/Fall09/John%20Owen%20Haley.html. They will discuss Japan’s focus on cooperative behavior, and the implementation of a restorative-justice system to reduce crime and recidivism in our individualistic culture.
