International Friend Welcome Gathering

About This Event

A community gathering to welcome international friends and residents.

What to Expect

• 1.Arrive a little early to check in at the welcome table near the park entrance so you know where the mingle zones are and you can grab a name tag if they have one.
• 2.Dress for outdoors in September in Michigan, wear comfy shoes and bring water and sunscreen since you'll be walking between shade and sun.
• 3.The crowd will be friendly and diverse but not pushy; you can join small groups easily or strike up conversations with the person next to you while you wander the park.
• 4.If there are information tables or activity stations, check them out and ask simple questions like where someone is from or how they heard about the gathering.
• 5.Park seating may be limited, so bring a lightweight blanket or portable chair and be prepared to move between spots as people mingle.
