Summer Valentines Day, which is the name of the legend of Tanabata of Orihime and Hikoboshi, is supposed to be a day of sending, especially of sunflowers and chocolates to a special someone.
Therefore, in Minami, where the ward flower is a sunflower, and in co-operation with the confectionery maker "Lotte", who have a factory in the area, they handed out sunflower seeds and chocolate sweets to people at the station as a campaign for traffic safety.

Furthermore, Miyawaki and Okada lifted the children so they could make a wish that there would be no traffic accidents on the slips of paper that decorated the bamboo grass in front of the station.
