Sponsored by the Coalition to Protect Parcel C for Chinatown, Recreation Day demonstrated the Chinese community's intention to use Parcel C to build a recreation and community center. There was music, food, and games for families and children at the fair. In this image, the boy is wearing a plastic, yellow apron, worn by the participants of the watermelon eating contest.
