July 14th is Bastille Day, the national holiday of France. We’ll be celebrating on Monday at 6 pm, with a bite to eat and a quiz game on the history and significance of the holiday (3 teams, surprise gift for the winning team!) – so now is a good time to brush up on your Bastille Day history!
Location: Jason’s classroom and in the Holland Center patio.
