An e-mail to college students.

March 14, 2010 by Adam.

(The following is an  e-mail I sent out to the heads of some student organizations, edited for this blog)

Greetings all.
I am writing from the Woo Ching White Crane Kung Fu School in Chinatown, in the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association building.

I’m writing because I would like to organize an event that would be a social gathering for all of the organizations in Chinatown, as well as all of the Asian Affiliated Student and Professional organizations in the Boston Area  and of course anyone else interested in coming. The idea would be to bring us all in closer contact with each other so that we can build a stronger community.
Of course I would need advice from College Students on how to plan an event that would be targeting college students which is why I am contacting you.

Some upcoming events our school is participating in is the Chinese Resident Association Banquet on Friday March 19th at 6pm in Chinatown and the Tai Tung Village Residents Association Banquet on Saturday the 27th of March. Both these events are in Chinatown, (probably Empire Garden but I’m not 100% sure.) If you would like to come to one of these events to see what we are about we will meet up at our Kung Fu School at around 5pm.
The address will be listed below.CCBA building on 90 Tyler street and we will move around the entire Chinatown. The idea is that if there are more people to witness the brutal beating on old people that have become more commonplace in Chinatown recently, that the perpetrator will choose not to assault that elderly person because of the crowd.
Dressing up in colorful costume is encouraged.

This will be the second time we have done this this month. The first time was March 13th at 6:30am on Saturday. (The assaults are really across the board in terms of times, which is disturbing.)

One of the participants also had the idea of making more of a party out of it with music performance and outdoor grilling perhaps in the park by the Chinatown gate.
I am looking into this further as well.

If you are interested in being added to Woo Ching White Crane’s mailing list which details our upcoming events let me know and I will add you.

I will post a copy of this e-mail on the Chinatown blog, which I occasionally contribute to as well.

I am looking forward to your advice, feedback, and suggestions.
