YOLETTE LOREDO HUFF Child and Youth Program Assistant Yolette Loredo Huff has been working with kids of various ages since she was a high school student. Her degrees in Human Development and Psychology have prepared her for her current position as a Child and Youth Program Assistant in the School Age Care program. Mrs. Yolette acknowledges her previous experiences differ from working in a DAF program. “Working with military children is different from working in the regular world, they have parents who are deployed, parents that are gone and they are going through a lot and the kids are very resilient.”

Mrs. Yolette strives to be the link that helps kids overcome the hardships that come along with being a military child.

At SAC, she oversees the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) area and creates learning activities for the kids, fostering an environment

HONORING

OBON

Every country around the world has different traditions and beliefs. Being part of a military community gives us the opportunity to experience the diversity of different cultures. Come along with us on this journey and immerse yourself in the Japanese tradition of Obon season.

Obon has been celebrated across Japan for hundreds of years and it is typically observed from 13–16 August every year, although in some areas it is observed in July. The tradition of this spiritual Buddhist celebration is to commemorate ancestors. Japanese nationals believe that during this time, spirits of loved ones and ancestors return to earth to visit family members.

For most Japanese, Obon is one of the most meaningful, spiritual and important days of the year. Families come together and celebrate this special time by partaking in different traditions.

On the first day of Obon, known as “Kamabuta Tsuitachi,” families meticulously clean the graves of those they want to honor, leaving food offerings there and at home altars. During Kamabuta Tsuitachi, it is believed that the spirits will start making their way to earth and that these offerings will guide them as they reunite with the loved ones they left behind. Families also light up small fires known as “Mukaebi” that serve as a light for the spirits to follow when they are here to visit.

Bon Odori Festivals are organized specifically to celebrate and commemorate Obon season. The carnival-like events feature special dances where performers wear “yukatas” and dance to traditional Japanese music, while attendees enjoy a variety of food selections available at the stalls around the event. During the celebration, participants ensure that their enthusiasm for the return of the spirits is reflected in their festivity.

Singing, dancing and lots of laughter can be observed during this special celebration where Japanese come together to honor the spirits of their deceased loved ones. They also take the time to create Shoryo-Uma, which are small spirit horses and cows that can help the spirits travel more comfortably during their journey. These unique creations are made by inserting four toothpicks into a cucumber and eggplant to resemble the animal’s legs.

After the excitement of welcoming the spirits home, there are also unique traditions for guiding them back. To wrap up the celebration, okuri (which means “firewall” in English) are lit up to assist the spirits on their journey when traveling back to the great unknown. Additionally, people gather at rivers to send off lanterns with messages for the spirits they would like to honor. These messages convey a little piece of their heart, letting them know how special it was to celebrate such a meaningful season.

INTERESTED IN TAKING PART IN THE OBON CELEBRATIONS?

KYOTO’S GOZAN NO OKURIBI FESTIVAL Kyoto • Tue • 16 Aug • 8 p.m.

One of the most popular and biggest Obon festivals in Kyoto where numerous bonfires are lit on top of mountains resembling Chinese characters, serving as a guide for deceased loved ones. It is definitely an Obon celebration you don’t want to miss.

KAMAKURA GREAT BUDDHA & SHRINE TOUR SAT • 10 SEP

HORIZONS AUGUST 2022

The Great Buddha of Kamakura is a bronze statue of Buddha, which stands on the grounds of Kotokuin Temple. With a height of 37 feet, it has long been one of the tallest bronze Buddha statues in Japan, surpassed only by the statue in Nara’s Todai Temple and some recent creations. The statue was cast in 1252 and originally located inside a large wooden temple hall. However, the temple buildings were destroyed multiple times by typhoons and tsunamis in the 14th and 15th centuries.

Since then, the Buddha has been standing in the open.

Hase temple is famous for its eleven-headed statue of Kannon, the goddess of mercy. The 30 feet tall, gilded wooden statue is regarded as one of the largest wooden sculptures of Kannon in Japan and can be viewed in the Kannon-do Hall. The temple’s main buildings stand halfway up the slope on a terrace, which allows for a

beautiful view of the Kamakura shoreline. Along the stairs leading up the slope stands the Jizo-do Hall, home to hundreds of small stone statues of the Jizo Bodhisattva.

The temple is a tranquil place with a beautiful garden and ponds that welcome visitors as they enter the temple grounds.

Tsurugaoka Hachimangu is the most important Shinto shrine in Kamakura. The shrine is a cultural center of the city of Kamakura and still serves as the venue for many of its most important festivals. It was founded by the Minamoto clan in 1063 and moved to its current location in the early 1180s. The shrine is dedicated to Hachiman, the patron god of the Minamoto family and of the samurai in general.

The deified spirits of the ancient Emperor Ojin, who has been identified with Hachiman, Hime-gami and Empress Jingu are enshrined at Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine.
