USCPFA - SOUTHEAST FLORIDA CHAPTER - (formerly PALM BEACH COUNTY CHAPTER)

USCPFA - SOUTHEAST FLORIDA CHAPTER - (formerly PALM BEACH COUNTY CHAPTER)

Our name was changed at our April 30, 2011 meeting from "Palm Beach County, Florida Chapter" to "Southeast Florida Chapter" because we now have members in several Southeast Florida counties and we wanted to better reflect our membership with a more encompassing name.

We have at least 3 luncheon meetings a year to discuss projects and business activities. Our luncheons usually feature a presentation by various Chinese interests. We sponsor students with scholarships and recently contributed to our chapter member Marylou Brunetta's participation in the World Championship triathlon in Beijing, China being held in September, 2011. For several years we have sponsored a Chinese New Year GALA with performances by very talented local Chinese Artists which is directed by our chapter member, Monica Shang who is also one of the contributing artists.

September 22, 2014 - SE FLORIDA CHAPTER DELEGATION TO NANTONG, CHINA





In Spring 2014 Jin Fa Yuan and Famei Fan, Christine Aylward's parents came to a chapter meeting as a delegation from the Nantong Returned Overseas Chinese Federation, delivering an invitation for the SE Florida chapter to enter into a friendship exchange. A letter of agreement was signed by the chapter co-presidents and delivered to the ROCF president by Mr. Yuan. Subsequently Mr. Wu Ya Jun sent an invitation to the chapter for a delegation to visit the Nantong ROCF to discuss further plans for this exchange. In September, delegates David Pena, Marge Ketter, co-presidents and Marty Penn and Christine Aylward, Vice Presidents, along with chapter member Nancy Penn, went to Nantong for 4 days of learning about the ROCF and the Nantong area. The delegation met with Mr Wu Ya Jun and another official to discuss possible exchanges, such as educational. Mr Wu presented them with a plate showing the bridge in Nantong as a Symbol of friendship. (Pictures by Marge Ketter)

Below is the plate that was given to our chapter depicting the Nantong bridge. The plate was translated by Christine Aylward for us.
