Eighty (80) of our members enjoyed a delicious meal and watched a wonderful slide presentation highlighting CACS events and support of the API community events over the last two years. I want to personally thank Charlie Moy, our historian and newsletter chair for putting together the slide show for all our members. In addition, we had an overwhelming response to our Annual Dinner Author Lecture on April 6th featuring Lisa See, author of \u201cSnow Flower and the Secret Fan\u201d and \u201cOn Gold Mountain\u201d. Over 280 people attended this event and I want to especially thank our Historical Chairs, Dr. Douglas Yee and his wife Karun Yee for making this such a successful event.<\/p>\n<p>Our Special Project Chairs, Dr. Wesley Yee and Rick Wong are planning a special trip sometime in the later part of June or early July for our members \u2013 stay tune for more to come!<\/p>\n<p>Other Events that CACS will be sponsoring are the Pacific Rim Street Fest on Sunday, May 21st \u2013 look for our booth!
