We want to celebrate our sisterhood by spotlighting the foods, clothing/costumes, artifacts, collectibles, national emblems (i.e. flags, etc) from countries around the world! Specifically we would like to spotlight Argentina, Brazil, Canada, England (Great Britain), France, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Holland, Ireland, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Thailand. (did we miss one?) Of course, we would love to have representation of the various regions from the USA, too! If you could help us through a table display spotlighting one of these countries and/or regions please let us (Meagan S. or Jene' H.) know asap! We would be so appreciative as this will make for a fun & memorable evening!
*Just a reminder, every 3rd Tuesday is set aside for our use of the building for RS activities!!
*Have a suggestion for an activity? Let us know~we'd love to hear about it!
