Date and time: Saturday, January 2017, 12 2: 18-00: 20
Location: Kobe Sannomiya Sake Hajime Okan Minami
Participation: 13 (PE9, PEN4) (11 members, 2 non-members) (13 Japanese men)
(13 working people) (11 living in Kansai, 2 living in Chukyo area) (13 repeaters)

The 2017 Year End Party (YEP) was held in one room of Sake Hajime Ozeki (Japanese food, hot pot) in Sannomiya, Kobe.There was a little time between the end of the Onikin seminar just before and the start of YEP, and because it was before the Luminarie was held, the 1th party was held by volunteer members.The number of participants was small until one week before the event, but it increased to 0 in the last week.The breakdown of the participants was only Japanese, working people, and repeaters, and the result was poor diversity, but in order to activate the activities in Kansai, I would like to gather first-time participants from next year onwards.

At the beginning, Mr. Nishikubo, the director who will be in charge of event planning in Kansai from this time, gave a toast and took about an hour to chat.In the latter half of the hour, each person gave a speech (there was no time limit, but it didn't happen because everyone adjusted it with some sense) and talked about the recent situation and aspirations for the next year.Speeches were scored based on the director's discretion and prejudice, and prizes were distributed.At the end, Mr. Kawamura made a speech to further activate the activities in Kansai.
