M best memory working at Marketing has been bringing in a variety My oof athletes and bands from States side. Everytime the Marketing ooffice starting promoting these events I noticed the excitement and aanticipation of the Misawa community. Things were slowed down and iit was difficult to bring these musical acts into Japan. Thankfully, things sseem to be shifting back into a more normal situatio situation. That's why a show llike the upcoming Battle of the Keys performance has h been an exciting promotion and hopefully we will continue to promote p promot a variety of eentertainment again.
