The 2013 New Chauncey Soup 'n Dance
Our 7th Annual NCNA Soup 'n Dance was a whole lot of fun for every one. One of the very thoughtful international students that attended the dance wrote:
I would like to convey my special thanks for the experience I was a part of today. I think I will speak for all of us international students that it was something never to forget. Special thanks also to the New Chauncey community for inviting us and having us be a part of their to their annual Soup and Dinner. Their hospitality was very heart-warming.
Looking forward to participating in more such experiences giving us insight into the American way of life!
Kind regards
Keith
It is especially heartwarming when we can have fun while building community with our student neighbors.
Tami Hammack organized the event and did a terrific job of organizing and inviting the neighborhood. The event once again went off without a hitch. Tami and her team treated us to a wonderful evening....
See the video and fun pictures....
