Members of the Mak Fai Dragon and Lion Dance Association entertained folks at an Asian Lunar New Year celebration earlier on Tuesday in Tukwila. Lion dances are traditionally performed to bring good luck and ward off evil, along with lighting strings of firecrackers. This year will be the Year of the Tiger. The tiger represents courage in the Chinese zodiac.
