We invite you to join NAR to relax and create Haikus in Aldrich Park. On Wednesday, November 1st at 3:45pm, meet us by the large tree at the Cross Cultural Center before we find a place to settle down in the park.  From 3:45-4:45pm we will do an icebreaker, explain how to make haikus as a group, and create haikus individually. If you haven’t already, register on CampusGroups and feel free to bring your own picnic blanket!
