I’ll introduce three towns, Yuni, Naganuma and Kuriyama! These towns are very close to each other and have a lot of nature. I’ll tell you mainly about events held in those towns.
Yuni～Centipede (Mukade) festival.
Do you know the centipede race? Some people stand one behind another and they tie their legs with rope. In this race, if someone in the group disturbs the group’s rhythm and stumbles, everyone will fall on the ground and the person who is at the head will fallen on by other members. So, teamwork is very important to do well and not to get hurt in this festival.

Naganuma～Yuyake-Ichi
This event is usually held every month from May to September. A lot of stores in the main street participate in this. There are many stalls along the street and we can enjoy eating good food, playing games or other things. In September, we can play bingo and this game always warms up!

Kuriyama～Kuriyama festival
This is a festival of Kuriyama shrine and held on a large scale. Streets in the town are very crowded. Not only people who live in and around this town but also people who come from Sapporo enjoy the festival. Some Yosakoi teams also come and dance. We can watch their dances closely.
It is difficult to enjoy these events this year, but I want you to visit someday!
