Lincoln Autumn Nights - Celebrating the Wa Sung Junk Boat Renovation

Lincoln Autumn Nights and the  
​Wa Sung Junk Boat Rededication (October 2018) 

Human beings were born to play. Play and recreation heals us, and it gives us the stamina and resilience we need to make it through tough times.
— Ener Chiu, Friends of Lincoln Square Park

It takes village... 

We'd like to especially thank our main coordinators for Lincoln Summer Nights: Alvina Wong, Joshua Lee, Ying Cai, Jing Jing He, Donna Khorsheed, Sean Chow, Gilbert Gong and Tommy Wong. Without their dedication to our community and Lincoln Square Park, none of this could have happened. Thank you also to all the park staff, partners, funders, volunteers involved in hosting and funding Lincoln Summer Nights 2018, and especially to Karen Dea and the Wa Sung Community Services Club who worked with the City of Oakland to complete the much needed repairs of the Junk boat playground.
