It is so wonderful to see the website and to hear the KIDS organization is still active. I founded the first Korea Camp 26 years ago! This was inspried by a son who didn't think he needed to listen to me because he was Korean. The camp helped him understand his origins, plus all my kids learned a lot while having a great time. They are now grown and have many fond memories of their camp experiences. Jeanie Turner (Beckham)

What a beautiful and improved site! It was great to see the photographs from 2007 camp and find the membership information updated. I shared the web address with a group of adoptive moms that gather for Korean food and fun a few times per year so they would know about it as well. Congratulations to Kim and the Board of Directors for sponsoring such a great resource. Best regards,
Patty Kerston

Thousands of Korean American's and family filled the capital building in Olympia. All four floors of the capital building were full of people trying to catch a glimpse of the celebration below.
I really enjoyed seeing older Korean Men and Women celebrating, as this was a very proud moment for them all. Enormous proud smiles on many as they heard Korean songs and watched dancers and drummers do traditional Korean dances in front of diplomats and state representatives.
The most represented age at this event was probably teenagers and youngsters with second being the elder Koreans. Everyone was amazed at the turnout and plans for next year will take this years' number of participants into account.
I was also moved by the singing of the American and Korean National anthems. It was apparent there were many more Korean participants at this event when the singing of both anthems was completed. This should become a tradition at all KIDS events.
Please see the album of pictures for this event.
