International Picnic (Social)
Done on April 16, 2022 @1-3pm
My IA event for this month was an International Picnic event put on by LC members Nina and Tobi. This event was for the couple of people who signed up for the event to all meet at Smith-Steeb and then all catch the COTA bus together to take to downtown. We would all go to North Market and then the original plan was to have an outdoor picnic at the nearby Goodale Park, but that park of the plan had to be scrapped due to the weather conditions on that day. We all had $10 vouchers to get whatever international foods we wanted at North Market, and then we would re-meet up and all eat together before taking the COTA bus back to campus together.
I really liked this event personally. I will take any excuse to go to North Market, and when I was there I branched out and tried a type of food I had never had before, so I’ll consider it successful. I also got to meet a couple of people that I hadn’t known before that are on the LC, which was very helpful, and got to connect with other IA members I hadn’t met before. This event relates to IA because it includes different international foods, and it was created by two members of the IA LC.
