Ripped from the Weekly Volcano online events caledar:

A grand opening celebration and dedication ceremony for the Fuzhou Ting will be held Sept. 22 at 2 p.m. at Chinese Reconciliation Park, 1741 Schuster Parkway, along the shores of Commencement Bay. The event is co-sponsored by the Chinese Reconciliation Project Foundation and the City of Tacoma, and it will feature Mayor Marilyn Strickland and Vice Mayor Chen Qi and his delegation from Fuzhou, China.

The event celebrates the completion of the complex installation of the traditional ting or Chinese pavilion in Chinese Reconciliation Park which began one year ago. It also celebrates Tacoma's ongoing Sister City relationship with Fuzhou, China, which donated the ting to Tacoma.
