Serve and be served a broad selection of top quality tea from Japan, India and China at this fun annual celebration of tea. San Diego Tea Meetup member Eugene Sukhorukov will play his soulful Japanese Shakuhachi flute music and help serve tea along with other volunteers. ﻿

The event day will be overseen by Dharlene Marie Fahl, one of the first members to join San Diego Tea Meetup. ﻿She will give a presentation on her trip to Darjeeling. Like Dianna, Dharlene is a Certified Tea Specialist (Specialty Tea Institute) and a Tching.com blog contributor. Dharlene is also a published author and will present some of her latest work as part of the activities.﻿ Dharlene will be bringing fresh Darjeeling tea from the company she visited recently in India.

The Meetup group will give 100% of funds collected above direct costs to Japan Red Cross to show our support for the Japan tea businesses that were affected by the earthquake and tsunami. Tea for this Meetup event has been donated by Rishi Tea and other tea companies in support of this effort.

Tea Appreciation Day is a new twist on an older celebration. Dianna's blog on how this came about was published on TChing.com (http://www.tching.com/Post.aspx?postuid=305202af-889a-49a4-a4cd-6725bf6b15fd&auid=afc75a6f-dade-413e-b8cf-6a3420eb58d6&origin=contributordetail) on July 2, 2010.
