Hype builds for International Night

   ASB and club presidents have spent weeks prepping, and on International Night, students will watch performances representing different cultures and enjoy ethnic food.
   “I’m doing the Indian dance this year,” Nadine Bouz (’13) said. Why the Indian dance? “Well, Monica and Raj do a great job choreographing it,” Bouz said, “and ever since my freshman year I’ve always thought this dance looked especially fun and I’m really excited to finally be in it.”
   “I’m not signed up to be in any performances this year, but I’m still going because it’s really fun to see everyone in their dances,” Ariana Habbestad (’13) said. “I think International Night is a great way for the school to come together and learn more about people’s backgrounds and where they are coming from,” Habbestad said.
   “When you’re actually in the dance you’re able to look at the culture from a whole new perspective. Everyone dresses up for their specific dance and gets really involved,” Bouz said.
   International Night is one of the biggest events of the school year. Chloe Soltis (’13) is in charge of planning the event this year and she has been working especially hard to make sure everything comes together. With new countries being represented inthis year’s International Night, it will be interesting to see how it all turns out.
