A Worldwide Holiday Dinner – University of Maryland Athletics

Any traditions you would like to start?
Karla Elena Vasquez Setzer, Women’s Golf (Mexico): The menu was designed to have lots of international foods with special appetizers such as gyozas and empanadas, while the main course of the dinner was typical Thanksgiving food like turkey, stuffing, macaroni and cheese and greens. 

Also, during the event we had activities to help international student-athletes network. We had activities where they had to interact with other teams’ ISAs by asking questions and taking selfies. 

Ashley Germain, Women’s Track and Field (Canada): From now on, I would like to continue doing this dinner because it is a great opportunity to connect Internationals with Americans. We share a meal while having a great time.
