Special Announcements

(From the Seattle Yee Fung Toy Association):
  1. To all State of Washington Yee family members:
    If you are 18 years or older and have not previously registered with the San Francisco Central Yee Association, please send in your $5.00 registration fee so that we may forward to the San Francisco Yee Head Quarter. Eligible members are all direct Yee descendants (males & females) and their spouses.

    Note: This registration requirement has always been in effect, except that we have not been doing it the past few years. It's very important and we get as many members as possible to register, as this may affect our share of the yearly available scholarship funding from San Francisco Yee Head Quarter.

  2. The 20th U.S. Yee Family convention will be held this year at Sacramento, Calif on August 19 - 23. Convention assessment fee is $10 per person (minimum). Again, the amount of the money and the total number members' contribution will also affect the next three year's scholarship funding.
