(Written by: Xu Xuetao Photography: Huang Bing) I really like Liu Yuxi’s words, “Since ancient times, autumn has always been a sad and lonely time, but I say that autumn is better than spring.” Especially in Arizona, a tropical desert climate area, autumn is the most beautiful season of the year. The summer sun has cooled down, and the winter north wind has not yet arrived. In such crisp, fresh and pleasant days, the Alberta Hope Chinese School once again ushered in the annual autumn sports meeting. Different from traditional sports games, the sports games of Hope Chinese School do not focus on winning or losing, but fully emphasize "sports, happiness, and communication." Look, all kinds of interesting games are in full swing on the big lawn of Tumbleweed Park. Ring tying is one of the students' favorite activities, especially the prizes are their favorite drinks, and the children are all excited. Parents and children also participated in the game to win bottled water. Some of them were engrossed in the game, some were talking about their experiences, some were regretful about not winning, and some were overjoyed to win. In another corner of the park, the tug-of-war competition and relay race were also in full swing. In the tug-of-war competition for the adult group, the morale of the mother team was greatly improved. Like a rainbow, the women did not show their grace; the father team was a gentleman, showing their gentlemanly demeanor; in the end, the mother team won with a slight advantage. The competition in the student group was even more fierce, and the children were eager to compete, with the energy of a newborn calf. On the relay running field, the students took vigorous steps and ran in the autumn breeze, showing off their youthful enthusiasm and vitality. When it comes to the word happiness, how can we not miss the blessing of delicious food. Not only did the parents bring delicious dishes, the school thoughtfully ordered delicious takeaways, and the parents of the student union members also set up stalls to grill lamb skewers, grind fresh soy milk, and make marshmallows. What’s more worth mentioning is that the first cooking competition will also have a grand opening: Tremella lotus seed soup and colorful water. Fruit tarts, pumpkin cornucopia, spicy and flavorful couple's lung slices, Xinjiang large plate chicken, spicy jelly, crispy and delicious shredded radish cake, flower bread, golden pork chops, Taiwanese salt crispy chicken, Hong Kong style roast pork, and the famous mixed rice noodle that amazed everyone when they appeared. The cooking masters showed off their skills, and teachers, students and parents were full of praise. In the joyful atmosphere, there are always some busy figures working silently for the smooth progress of the sports meeting. The big brothers and sisters of the student union not only provide free face painting to the children, but also actively organize charity sales to raise funds for the work of the student union and the school; the game teachers and student volunteers are busy under the sun, bringing laughter to everyone; all volunteers The purchase and arrangement started early, providing reliable logistical support for the Games. It is due to everyone's efforts that another Autumn Games was a complete success. Let us look forward to the coming year and more joy and hope!
