Pocheon City announced that on the 21st, it held the 29th Executive Committee meeting for the Pocheon Sanjeong Lake Myeongseongsan Silver Grass Festival, where committee members discussed the overall direction of the festival's operations, major programs, and safety management measures.

The meeting was attended by Pocheon Mayor Baek Younghyeon, Executive Committee Chairperson Yang Daejong, Pocheon City Council member Kwon Bokyung, the leader of Sanjeong-ri, as well as officials from related agencies and organizations.

The committee reviewed the details of the festival’s program composition, budget operation plans, inter-agency cooperation matters, and safety management measures for visitors, covering all aspects of the festival’s implementation strategy.

This year’s festival will be held from October 16 to 18 in the Sanjeong Lake and Myeongseongsan area, with the opening ceremony scheduled for October 17.
