The young man in the center of the photograph is Hideki Ono. Thank you to Roseann Yoshida for making that identification.

HINT – The photograph was found in a VJCC photo album chronicling the year 1990. What else can you tell us about this picture? Who are the others in the picture? What were they doing? What significance to our Community Center does the photo represent?

Send your comments to talkstory@vjcc.com with "May Talk Story" as the subject.
