The Los Angeles Clippers, in conjunction with the Nisei Week Foundation, invite everyone to join them for the Clippers’ annual Japa­nese American Community Night, to be held Sunday night, March 16, at the Staples Center.

The team’s opponent for the evening will be the Cleveland Cava­liers.

This event offers great entertain­ment and opportunities to showcase Japanese American traditions and pride.

Prior to the game, come meet and greet the 2013 Nisei Week Queen & Court in the Staples Cen­ter concourse. At halftime, several community representatives will be introduced, followed by a special performance from Daion Taiko of Orange County.

Special limited discounted tickets are available for the community, and can be purchased through Ticketmas­ter.com, or by calling Charlie Arviso at (213) 742-7544.

More details will be announced as the date nears. For more information about Japanese American Commu­nity Night, contact John “JT” Tamaki at jctamaki@aol.com.

Hope to see you there and go Clippers!
