We just had the traditional "decorating of the tree" at the Adventure Center downtown where quest students got together to decorate a tree to represent the quest community.
This year we also have a food donation for the local community happening on campus. I'm really excited for this because I love how the Quest community is trying to give back to the Squamish community. It's definitely a good way to use up the extra cafeteria meal money because you know it's going to a good cause.
Lastly, SECRET SANTA! yay! This year we are having a Quest Secret Santa. But oh no no, it's not like the normal secret santa where you buy gifts for your secret person. Nope, this is Quest style. Instead, through the month of December, each person participating has to do "Random Acts of Kindness" for their secret person. How awesome is that! Since it started, I have seen soooo many awesome acts of kindness around campus...some kinda odd. hahaha. Some include telling the cafeteria ladies to charge their secret person's meals to the secret santa's meal plan, poster's with comments about people on the walls, balloons and candy in the middle on the doors people's doors. It's truly amazing! It feels like we are coming closer as a community (if that is even possible, hahaha).
I love the Christmas season and having it at Quest makes it feel like I'm not missing out on it back home. I love it!
