Chinese Activity Fair

The Chinese Activity Fair is Sunday night, December 2nd at 5-6:30 p.m. in the Cox Room and Parent Association Room.

There will be food, prizes, Mahjong (a chinese board game) and a lot of other interesting activities in Cox Room. There will be popcorn and a movie showing in the Parent Association Room. Chris Couchon our chef from the dining hall will specially prepare a very traditional and precious Chinese recipe—it will be really, really good!

The Chinese students all have prepared for a long time. So everybody should go to dining hall on Sunday and stop by the Cox Room. Have fun and enjoy the party!
