[Anthsoc] Anthro Movie Night, and other summer events!

[ErinStieler]

Hey everyone,

 

Hope your summers are all going well and you are enjoying your Canada 
Day holiday!  The Anthropology Society has been busy planning some great 
events for the up-coming 2009-2010 academic year, and we have managed to 
plan some events for this summer for those of you who are on campus this 
term.

 

Our first event of the summer will be the Anthro Movie Night on 
Wednesday, July 8^th , from 6pm to 10pm in PAS 2086. We will be getting 
together to watch two anthropology-related films: Indiana Jones and 
Gorillas in the Mist. There will be free pizza and pop, and feel free to 
bring any snacks!  For those of you who don't know the PAS building 
well, Room 2086 is on the main floor, right beside the center stairwell 
with the skylight.

 

AnthSoc is also planning a trip to the 30th annual Grand River Champion 
of Champions Pow Wow in Ohsweken, Ontario, on Saturday, July 25^th . The 
Champion of Champions Pow Wow attracts pow wow dancers from all over 
North America and involves pow wow dance contests, smoke dance 
competitions, native craft vendors and food vendors, and lots of music. 
We will be meeting early on Saturday morning and carpooling to the pow 
wow grounds.  Admission is $10 a person, and we should be back at UW by 
6pm at the latest.  In order to decide further details, AnthSoc needs to 
have a head count of how many people plan to attend this event.  If you 
happen to be interested, please contact Erin at estieler at uwaterloo.ca 
<mailto:estieler at uwaterloo.ca> and let her know whether you will be 
providing a ride or will be needing a ride.

 

Lastly, AnthSoc is also planning a trip to the Caribana Festival in 
Toronto this year, where we will be carpooling to see the Caribana 
Parade on Saturday, August 2^nd . $5 a person would be required in order 
to chip in for gas, and additional costs for taking the street car to 
the parade grounds may apply.  If you are interested in attending this 
event, please contact Erin at estieler at uwaterloo.ca 
<mailto:estieler at uwaterloo.ca> as well.

 

Some events and other things to look forward to in the up-coming 
academic year include a BBQ, regular hang-out times in our new and 
improved student lounge, more movie nights, international cuisine 
dinners, a trip to the ROM, Meet the Profs Night, Anthropology hoodies, 
and possibly a session on native drumming.

 

Thanks for your time, and remember to let us know if you would be 
interested in the Pow wow and/or the Caribana Parade trip!
