The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the anticipation of festive gatherings and joyful celebrations. This year, a special holiday party has been organized for Monday, December 16, to be held in the media center during lunch. The event promises to be a highlight of the season, filled with fun activities and delicious treats.

One of the key aspects of the holiday party is the food. Organizers are reaching out for help with food contributions, encouraging attendees to bring store-bought items. A menu with suggestions has been provided, and those who wish to bring something not listed are welcome to do so, provided they fill out the form by December 6. This ensures a diverse and delectable spread for everyone to enjoy.

Adding to the excitement is the White Elephant gift exchange, a popular holiday tradition where participants bring a wrapped gift and take turns choosing or “stealing” gifts. To join in the fun, attendees need to bring a gift worth between $10 and $20. This light-hearted game is sure to bring plenty of laughs and surprises, making it a memorable part of the celebration.

One student, Kowen Webb, humorously exclaimed, “I’m going to eat everything so nobody else gets any!” His enthusiasm captures the fun and light-hearted spirit that this event aims to foster.

The holiday party is more than just an event; it is an opportunity for friends and classmates to come together, share in the joy of the season, and create lasting memories. Despite the cancellation of Friendsgiving, the spirit of coming together and celebration remains strong, and the organizers are dedicated to ensuring this event is a success.

As the date approaches, anticipation is building, and participants are encouraged to stay tuned for further updates. The holiday party is set to be a wonderful occasion, embodying the warmth and togetherness that define this special time of year.

In the meantime, let’s all look forward to December 16 and prepare to celebrate the season in style.
