A group of approximately 120 guests attended the Terminal Islanders Club’s annual New Year’s luncheon to celebrate the Year of the Dragon on Jan. 14 at The Grand in Long Beach.

Fifteen original Terminal Islanders with their immediate families, relatives, friends and Kenjin-kai guests gathered to see everyone and catch up on how they were doing.

“You-ra, genki?”(“Are you guys fine”?) “Me-ra genki”(“We are fine”), they said in Taminaru-ben, a crude way of mixing up English and Japanese phrases in their own Terminal Island fishermen’s language.

June Miyamoto Donovan, president of the Terminal Islanders, greeted everyone and started the program by asking for a moment of silence to remember and pay respects to the members that had left us during the prior year. One noticeable empty seat was that of Minoru Tonai, an original resident and the prior club president, who passed away last year.

Back row, from left: Yoshi Tani, Toyoko Yamashina, Ichiro Nakasuji, Walter Shioji, Muneto (Mo) Miyagawa, Paul Kai.

Min was not only a community leader; he had a vast knowledge of the history of Terminal Island, and knew more about families’ histories and connections than some of the families themselves.

Los Angeles Maritime Museum Director Marifrances Trivelli spoke briefly on “Taminaru,” one of the exhibits that shows how much the community of close to 3,000 played a role in the fishing industry and the history of Terminal Island. Trivelli explained how what was to be a short-term exhibit is now ongoing since the spring of 2018.

After lunch, a video of the presentation of the Heritage Award to the Terminal Islanders at Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach this past November was shown. It included Ryujin Taiko performing and the ondo dances that followed: “Hokkai no Abarembo,” “Pokemon Ondo” and “Yoru ni Kakeru.”

Entertainment was provided by Tokyo-born Rayko Tak, a bilingual vocalist, composer, multi-instrumentalist, front of the symphonic rock band Lolita Dark and actress. She led the guests in singing the New Year’s song “Oshogatsu no Uta.” She also sang several classic songs such as “Koko ni Sachi Ari” and “Ue wo Muite Aruko,” among a few other favorites.

Year of the Ryu (Dragon) birthday guests were announced and given a small memento of a dragon. Raffle drawing prizes were also given to guests with winning tickets.

Ending the luncheon was ondo dancing of “Hokkai no Abarenbo,” “Tanko Bushi,” and “Anpanman Ondo” between the banquet tables with many of the attendees participating. During the Obon season, members also participate in various ondo dances around Southern California while wearing their Terminal Islanders happi, drawing the curiosity of people wanting to know more about the group.

The next Terminal Islanders event will be their annual picnic at George Bellis Park in Buena Park with a tentative date in June.

Guests catch up with each other during the luncheon.
