Gwonseon-gu Geumho-dong Holds Senior Citizens' Celebration Festival

Geumho-dong in Gwonseon-gu (Dong Chief Roh Man-ho) held a senior citizens' celebration festival on October 2nd to commemorate Seniors' Day, with approximately 4,000 elderly residents participating across the Gwonseon-gu Office vicinity, Wedding Class, and 11 designated locations by district. The event arranged ten 45-passenger vehicles to assist with transportation for the elderly. Community center students showcased the skills they had cultivated through guitar performances, BNI dance, and belly dance, delighting the seniors' eyes and ears.

The celebration festival included commendations for long-lived elderly residents, filial piety practitioners, and contributors to elderly welfare. The event proceeded in three segments: pre-feast ceremonies, commemorative events, and post-feast activities.

Galbi-tang (short rib soup) was prepared as the day's lunch. The approximately 4,000 elderly participants' faces were filled with smiles after a long time. Following the event, Lee Byung-ju, chairman of the Residents' Autonomous Committee, said, "I will do my best to better prepare next year so that our elderly can spend the day joyfully."
