The 49th Delicious "Shintoku" Great Snow Festival This Events is coming again this year! The Daisetsu Festival is a food festival where you can buy high-quality vegetables and Soba (buckwheat noodles) from Shintoku. The most popular items are all-you-can-eat local vegetables (500 yen), freshly harvested, freshly ground, freshly pounded, and freshly boiled Shintoku buckwheat noodles, as well as Fresh fruits delivered from Higashine City, Yamagata Prefecture, a friendly city in Shintoku Town. Also, on stage, if you buy meat at a Magic show, live performance, or venue, you can enjoy BBQ because they will lend you charcoal and a stove for free.

Autumn leaves begin. I went to Tokachi Dam to prepare for the Kina Cow Shrine Shrine Commemorative Festival, which will be Held in on Tuesday, October 1st. Among Town, the temperature rises to around 20°C during Gari daytime, but drops to single digits at night, and I think the temperature is a little lower in Squid mountainous areas. I also received a report that Autumn leaves have started from Tomraushi Onsen Tosetsu-so, so I wonder if it has progressed considerably in about a week. If it is every year, it will be Best time to visit near the Tomraushi Onsen Tosetsu-so at the beginning of next month, and it will be Best time to visit around the middle of the month near the lake from the Tokachi Dam, so please take a look at the Autumn leaves to dye untouched Nature.

The Revived Variety Show Nishiokoppe Village’s variety show was held again for the first time in five years. A huge, huge, huge success!!!! The hiatus had several causes. There were infectious diseases, budget cuts, a shortage of performers… and more. Thanks to many forms of cooperation, we managed to overcome those obstacles and were able to hold the event safely. The show opened with the Wenshiri Taiko performance, revived after 20 years. Although the performance lasted only five minutes, it was powerful and a perfect choice to set the tone for the opening. There were many acts across genres for children and adults alike, and seeing friends and acquaintances happily take the stage warmed everyone’s hearts. Some acts were so intense that small children were moved to tears! In the latter half, the karaoke segment livened things up. You could lose yourself in beautiful voices, or join in with supportive shouts and enjoy the moment together. The evening closed with the audience singing the village festival song together and a fukumaki (good-luck bean toss). We are grateful to everyone who came, everyone who performed, and those who supported us from afar. Thank you very much! #Nishiokoppe Village #Variety Show #Performances #Karaoke #Wenshiri Taiko #Chase the Nut Thief #Ritz Pritz Khao Man Gai #Rissa♡ #Asano Kazu #The generous ohineri (tip) culture was amazing

Shinto Shrine Festival September 11th marked the shrine festival in the Nishiokoppe district. Elementary and junior high schools ended classes early, and by 10:30 everyone had gathered at the starting point for the mikoshi procession. Adults and children alike wore happi coats and moved through each neighborhood association. Preschoolers dressed in ochigo (child attendant) costumes followed the adults and the older students, walking on bravely. It took about two and a half hours to complete the whole route. Because people usually travel around the village by car, it had been a long time since anyone walked this much. The lion-dance team reportedly visited each house with someone at home, which took more than twice as long. Thank you to everyone for your hard work. Despite all that walking, the elementary school children were full of energy for the sumo tournament! They worked hard to earn pocket money for enjoying the evening variety show. Although it was a serious competition, the sumo tournament was full of smiles. The whole village was awash in festival spirit for the day. I will post separately about the evening variety show! #Nishiokoppe Village #Shrine Festival #Mikoshi Procession #Parade #We paraded through the streets #Tengu #Sumo Tournament
