"The preparation and planning of the event started at the beginning of this year's classes, and what I could not do in the class was after school or during summer vacation," said Riho Saito, a third-year student at Hirosaki University.

He said that he sometimes went out of the university and went to a store in the city to ask for sponsorship. "I had the chance to learn the harshness of society by being paid in front of the gate, but I also had many opportunities to experience the kindness of the people of Hirosaki," Saito said. "I'm getting better year by year because of the experience of my seniors. I feel the expectations of the Hirosaki people."

Mr. Saito calls, "From children to adults, not only local residents but also international students can enjoy a different day together than usual."
