On December 4 (Sun), the 11th Mochitsuki Tournament was held with the participation of neighborhood associations such as Kakigara-cho and Hakozaki-cho. .
In the past, smaller neighborhood associations went to each other just after the 20th, when the New Year is near.
Why did you do this? ? ? ? ・・・・・・・
In the past, there were many people who could not eat rice cakes during the New Year because the gap between the rich and the poor was larger than it is now.
In such a situation, rich people paid out money and put rice cakes in each town and celebrated the New Year.
Today, it is supported by volunteers and inherits old traditions.
Equipment used for rice cake making is stored underground at Nihonbashi Elementary School.
New rice is delicious, but old rice seems to be better for rice cakes and sushi.
The rice cakes made by a large number of volunteers were put in a pack with yellow flour and red bean paste and distributed.
I purchased the 200 yen ticket first and went with you.
There is also "Udon", and eating freshly made rice cakes and udon on the street is a sense of unity and fun.
There was also a matching happi appearance, so I felt like a festival.
I was very happy to hear that the participation of young people living in condominiums in such gatherings is increasing.
