The descendants from the 趙Chew, 黄Foey, 陳Chin and Chan family will provide a speech regarding the conclusion of the one-year series of events. The Helen and Joe Chew Foundation will have a joint book reading on Images of America: Chinese in Tehama County followed by an optional walking tour to conclude the festivities.
