The Mai Wah Society: Chinese New Years past and future

Chinese New Year Celebrations! In 2009, Reader's Digest named the Butte Mai Wah Chinese New Year Parade one of the 6 most interesting processions in America! Join us for a true Butte experience! Photos and Links from the 2010 Year of the Tiger Parade Thanks to the following businesses for donating red envelopes! Their contributions brought them a special Dragon Dance to guarantee luck and prosperity in the coming year.

In addition to the Dragon Dance blessing each business, owners received a window card to show their support for the Mai Wah and to help keep evil spirits away. THANK YOU! The Dragon, a gift to the Mai Wah from the people of Taiwan, returned to its home on Mercury Street for another year. 10,000 firecrackers welcomed the Dragon home. You can visit it there, starting in June!
