オープニングセレモニーでは、荻原健司長野市長と共に、寄付者代表としてテープカットに参列しました。この式典は多くのメディアで報道され、大変な賑わいとなりました。

大阪芸術大学の教授、若生謙二先生がデザインした「ライオンの丘」は、志賀高原から菅平高原までの長野県の雄大な山並みを背景に、まるでキリマンジャロのような迫力ある景観を楽しめる展示となっています。

さらに、「ライオンの丘」建屋の壁には、有名企業の名前と共に、「自由飲酒党」の文字が大きく刻まれています。自由飲酒党のチャリティーTシャツやその他の商品の販売利益は、未来の酒飲み（子供たち）のために寄付されています。

是非、自由飲酒党のTシャツを着て、長野市茶臼山動物園に足を運び、ライオンたちに会いに行ってください！ライオンたちも喜んで歓迎してくれることでしょう。

引き続き、2023年も自由飲酒党の商品購入で、今年度の寄附にご協力をお願いいたします！

April 22, 2023: Grand Opening Ceremony of "Lion's Hill" at Chausuyama Zoo in Nagano City

A grand opening ceremony was held at Chausuyama Zoo in Nagano City for the newly opened lion exhibition space, "Lion's Hill." In 2021, The freedom Drinkers Party donated a display fence (118 sq. meters, totaling ¥1,310,000) for the exhibition space. After about a year and a half, we were honored to attend the long-awaited completion ceremony.

At the opening ceremony, we participated in the ribbon-cutting as a representative of the donors, along with Nagano City Mayor Kenji Ogiwara. This ceremony was widely covered in the media and drew a great deal of attention.

Designed by Professor Kenji Wakao of Osaka University of Arts, "Lion's Hill" features a breathtaking exhibition set against the majestic mountain ranges of Nagano Prefecture, from Shiga Kogen to Sugadaira Kogen, reminiscent of the imposing landscape of Kilimanjaro.

Furthermore, the name "Jiyu Inshu Party" is prominently engraved on the wall of the "Lion's Hill" building, alongside well-known companies. Profits from the sale of The freedom Drinkers Party's charity T-shirts and other merchandise are donated for the benefit of future alcohol drinkers (children).

Please visit Chausuyama Zoo in Nagano City wearing a Jiyu Inshu Party T-shirt and show it off to the lions! The lions will surely welcome you with delight.

We kindly ask for your continued support in 2023 by purchasing The freedom Drinkers Party merchandise to contribute to this year's donations!
