The Northern California Cherry Blossom Festival’s Senior Appreciation Brunch began over 30 years ago to recognize and thank seniors in the local Japanese American community for their dedicated volunteer services. Every year, honorees are nominated by the Festival’s Executive Committee, senior centers, and community organizations, and they will receive certificates of commendation from elected officials. Following the brunch, they are recognized at the Grand Parade for their commitment to the Japanese community.
The 2024 Honorees will be celebrated at the Senior Appreciation Brunch on the final Sunday of the Festival.
