News in Tendo

<November, 1997>

Nov.30 (Sun.) exhibition at "Nozomi" family

They had a exhibition at the "Nozomi Hikari no Ie" and the "Nozomi Gakuen" in Takadama area. The "Nozomi" family is a place for the defectives in Tendo.

Many people visited there because it was fine. They sold vegetables, coffee and "Konjak" which is a paste mede from a kind of potato and it is a famous food in Yamagata Prefecture.

I think that some people have a bias to the defectives. But they are same, only with a little defect.

They want and need more staffs, especially men. These days there are the "Holidays for voluntary works". Let us help them each other !

There is a convenience store at the 1st floor of the Tendo Station. But these days they are close every day.
There are staffs in the store and turn on the lights. But they are close.

It seems that the JR transfers the store to the subsidiary of JR. The staff of the station are very busy for original work. We think that it is natural to them.

One of the largest supermarket in Japan "York Benimaru" are open at the area named "LaLa Park Tendo", which is by the Route 13. At this area, the amusement arcade "SEGA", the video lental shop "TSUTAYA", the doughnuts shop "Mr. Doughnuts" and many shops have opened. There is a bank in the supermarket. This is the first thing at the east area in Japan. So, many broadcaster and writer come there.

And at the "Eki Nishi" area (the west area from the Tendo station), a DIY shop have opened and a car shop will open.

Now we have the rush of builting shops in Tendo.

They say that the foggy days decrease in Tokyo because of "Heat Island Phenomenon". But in Tendo, we have many foggy morning.

�@We had a foggy days in a several days. So, we had to drive our cars with turning on the light. We could see about 100 meters ahead. The planes from Tokyo and Osaka could not land the airport.

We have the festival of Red Leaves from November 1 to November 9 at the "Kakuchi Gakusya"(old school)in the Kaminukuzu area. We went to watch there. Many people, families and cameramans, visited there.

�@But it is difficult to go there except people who know around there because the loads are complicated. You can see some spotlights around there.

We have "the 9th contest of Rip Marks" in this year. "The 9th contest of Rip Marks" means to compete with each other by the rip mark. Not only women but also men and children who stayed at the Tendo spas can only take part in the contest. 3,204 people took part in the contest in this year.
