Straußäcker II Sommerfest (June 6, 2007)

Complete Set of Photos

Last Wednesday we had the annual "Summer Festival" in our apartment complex. The student leaders had organized this party, complete with live bands, food tents, and other fun stuff! Many foreign students set up foot stands with food from their own country (I ate some sushi!).

Unfortunately, it rained for about half an hour at the beginning, so everyone ran under the porches and into their apartments. We watched a bit of the Germany-Slovakia soccer game (Germany won!), and then went outside to continue the party after it cleared up.

I didn't bother to take pictures with my own camera, because they have a person who does it for the Straußi web site. I'll link to that when the pictures are up!

I also found it interesting... Michigan Tech has a whole set of rules regarding alcohol on campus, as well as companies sponsoring the sports teams, etc. Well, I think we break about every one of those rules in Germany! This party just got me thinking about it.
