Although we cannot see them, our ancestors are duly at our sides. They are watching over us, and it is because of them that our families may be happy. 

We invite you to remember your loved ones and to participate in our Obon services.

Parking

Parking for Bon Dance will be available at Damien Memorial School on Friday and Saturday nights. The Damien parking lot will be available on Friday from 5:30-11pm and Saturday from 3:30-11pm. Please be courteous to our neighbors at Damien and ensure you are out of the lot by 11pm.

Limited on-site parking is available for temple volunteers on a first-come, first-served basis. Parking in these areas will be "first-in, last-out," meaning you may be blocked in and unable to leave until the event concludes. 

While we do reserve a limited number of spaces on-site for those with handicap placards and those attending the Hatsubon service, these spaces fill up quickly. We highly recommend coming early and carpooling whenever possible. ​

Bon Dance Volunteers & Donations

Donations are being accepted for food booth.  Please contact Rev. Miyagi ([email protected]) with any questions.
