good morning all!

it is also a national holiday in Japan, Taiku No Hi (sports day)

October 10th was the opening day of the Tokyo Olympics in 1964. In order to commemorate this first Olympic games held on Asian soil, October 10th became a National holiday. The Olympics helped speeding up with Japanese infrastructure. Preparing for this event, Shinkansen between Tokyo and Osaka was put into construction four years prior to the event. It was first serviced on October 1st, 1964. Traditionally, Japanese schools and business, as well as towns and villages hold sports day, in fall and spring. Events such as, big ball relay, tug of war, beanbag toss, three legged race, running relay races are popular programs.

Everyone should grab a beanbag and throw it at UW.
