Niagara Medical Campus and surrounding community gardens.
An optional dinner will be provided at 6:30.

How was your Thanksgiving Break?
We're curious about the fun you had back home on break!
I had a nice relaxing time not being seeing the inside of Hayes Hall and definitely ate too much food. It was my first Thanksgiving as a vegetarian which made my mom real nervous, but she handled the stuffed squash well! I also saw my friend who is living in NYC. We haven't hung out in two years- it was an awesome time!
