After a long time
Yoshinori Shinohara
Sending my message on this board has been getting fewer. I’m a program student in 1994. It has passed 17 years since that time. I experienced various things so far from then、 my summer memory that I experienced at the age of my high school that was my energy for my biggest growth. I have failed with my dream、 but I was able to try hard because of my experience in then.
How are you everyone? We need time until it revives、 let’s do our best with the heart of all as one.

A program student of the 7th
Yoji Shigihara
I’m Yoji Shigihara、 a program student of the 7th in 1991、 and participated as a student of Onahama Fishery High School. It past 20 years since that program、 I feel like the yesterday’s thing. When it was much before the earthquake disaster、 I felt peaceful but it to be stuffy at that time. Thanks to YBF program、 I still spend days with my dream.
It may be difficult things from present situation、 I hope such young people get an opportunity with a big field of vision through this program. And I think I want the high school students to feel what I felt in those days.
I hope my group member are safety.

How are you?
Kumiko Tadano
It’s my first time to send a message. I think we faced a difficult situation after disaster. How are you? I’ve visited Manitoba several times since my first visit in Manitoba in 1998. And I participated in the wedding ceremony of the host family in Manitoba several years ago. After the great earthquake、 their heartwarming emails became the support of my heart. I want to visit Canada with my family in the near future.
