Ambassadors rock!

Ambassadors rock!!
As always, the Beach Volleyball Tournament was a success! This is the most popular event organized by the SBCC International Student Ambassadors, and every semester several students (and non-students) participate in this event as players and/or spectators. The beach volleyball tournament draws so many people’s attention because it is fun, a perfect opportunity to spend one Saturday differently, by participating in a social event with people from all over the world.
Serving pizza!
In addition, the event is right on the beach, and the warm and sunny weather makes it impossible not to go down to the beach! Ambassadors are also famous for having abundant quantities of food at all events, and this tournament wasn’t different. Around 12:30, the players had a chance to have a break and eat some Domino’s Pizza, which was left over for how much we ordered. This event was particularly successful as we had 16 teams sign up for the tournament, and there were even more who wanted to join but unfortunately we could not accommodate more than 16 teams in our tournament. 
Plenty of Ambassadors showed up to volunteer, which contributed to the fun and ease of running a successful event. We took turns and helped out as referees, score-keepers, food-servers and beach-cleaners all day long. We also had a chance to play some vball, or at least those of us who wanted to! 

Ambassadors events are also great because you get to meet awesome people every time and you can make new friends. People there are happy and having a great time so it is not hard at all to start talking to everybody around, and you can find out many interesting things, since most of the Ambassadors are international students. 

If you missed the tournament and you want an opportunity to get to know us Ambassadors and explore new cultures and meet new SBCC students— or if you didn't miss it but would still like to come have fun— you are still in time! 

Food Fair at Antioch University
The International Food Fair and Language Exchange event, originally scheduled for last Friday, was postponed to tomorrow, Friday March 18 because of the bad weather we had last week. Currently, it looks like it’s gonna be another warm sunny day tomorrow, so come say hi!

For those of you who don’t know yet, the International Food Fair and Language Exchange is an opportunity to try home-made international foods prepared by us Ambassadors and other international students at SBCC— for free! It is always a lot of fun as we are also going to have a raffle with some nice prizes, and the proceeds are going to be donated to charity. The event will take place from 3:00pm to 5:00pm at Antioch University, on the beautiful open patio on the second floor. 

You don’t wanna miss it! 


Also, Ambassadors are recruiting for next semester! Fill out an application on our Facebook page.

A presto,
