For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

WE WANT YOU to join us to celebrate America’s birthday on the 4th of July (2012)!
The party will start at 2 pm and last until 10 pm (?).
The party’s location will be Changchun’s Goose Island (Da’edao or Dahedao), just south of the Jilin University south campus.
Costs
Cover charge: 30 RMB, in return you will receive 2 hamburgers or 2 hot dogs or one of each, plus a plate of side dishes.
Cash bar: beer prices range from 5 to 12 RMB.
Travel: approximately 20 RMB taxi ride from Guilin Road.
In addition, we (hopefully) will stage a re-enactment of the famous naval battle between the warships Bonhomme Richard (U.S.) and Serafis (U.K.). It might not be too historically accurate, but it’ll be entertaining! Plus, other activities will be announced soon.
Lastly, if it rains, still come. We even have a spacious shelter to use to continue the party.

American hospitality at it's best. Thanks to all. Selina especially loved meeting you all and didn't want to leave.
Indeed - our American cousins did us proud - great stuff!
Fantastic event - thanks to all our American friends for organising (spelt with an s and not a z!)
Hopefully, plenty of photos for later!
A few hours to go before the festivities begin.
FYI, weather reports claim that today will be cloudy in the 'chun. But never fear, in case of rain, we have a location at Goose Island to continue the party.
Hopeto see you all there!
A zither is good ( Burns way of writing is rubbing off on me!). I want to join
Richard, thank you for the offer, but I think that we are alright. However, should the situation change and a need arises, I'll let you know asap.
Does anyone need a Zither?
