Enjoy the popular SUP experience on the Toyohira River that flows through Sapporo! Enjoy the scenery while standing or sitting on a board in the field of the valley next to Jozankei Onsen. The average depth of the river is about 1 meter and the current is gentle, so there is no need to worry if you fall into the water. Some people dive by themselves when they get used to it. Children can participate because it is shallow. This plan is also OK for “Dog-chan SUP” to participate with your dog! It is also recommended to wear a life jacket (bring your own or rent one) and have a good time with your dog♪

The characters you create as you run around barefoot on a piece of paper bigger than a tatami mat will be a lifelong memory! The instructor, calligrapher Mikami, has a father and mother who are also calligraphers, and has been familiar with calligraphy since childhood. Mikami is very creative and energetic. Not satisfied with ordinary calligraphy paper, he runs around freely on the large calligraphy paper with a large brush held in both hands, and the characters he creates with his whole body are soon becoming a specialty of Naganuma Town. He also performs at Naganuma Town's summer festival and sunset market, and sometimes collaborates with local musicians. This program was created not only to show people this fun, but also to let them experience it. Participants are first surprised by the weight of the brush filled with ink, and are very satisfied with the characters they write with all their heart, sweating. The written characters take time to dry, and there are limitations on where you can hang them. You may only be asked to take a photo in front of the work.

With the advice of an instructor, you can freely arrange seasonal flowers from the surrounding area in a special box set with absorbent sponges. It's fun! Naganuma Town is famous for its rice and vegetable production, but in fact there are many wonderful flower producers. So Maoi, a flower shop that fell in love with the flowers of Naganuma Town, moved from Sapporo to the town. Their outstanding flower arranging sense has attracted the attention of various industries, and they were even entrusted with the flowers for the opening of a certain luxury hotel on the shores of Lake Shikotsu that recently opened. The shop is always full of fresh flowers. When you order a bouquet, they will ask you, "Who is this for?" and arrange it to suit the recipient and the image of the sender. As they fell in love with the flowers of Naganuma, they have built strong relationships with local flower farmers. There are many flowers that are only grown in Naganuma. In the box flower making experience, you can freely arrange seasonal flowers in the specially prepared box, and learn the tricks of flower arranging and the rules for arranging beautifully. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask the friendly instructor. The boxed flower arrangement you made will surely be a very welcome item to display in your home or give as a gift!
