Photos from our Welcome Week at St Paul's, August 22nd - 27th.
Events included a Welcome Dinner on Monday, Softball and Slop on Friday, and a Downtown Tour of Iowa City on Saturday.
The Welcome Dinner was a wonderful opportunity for the St Paul's community to kick-off the school year and welcome the students, both > new and returning. Not a single piece of fried chicken was left behind.
Softball and Slop, an well-loved annual event anticipated by the students each year, was great fun and offered the students a chance to get to know each other better. When the rain started it got a bit, well, sloppy, but we pushed through until the sun came out again. Game stats? It was a tie! To celebrate our mutual victories, we all > headed over Pastor Mons' home for the slop, although you could hardly call it "slop"! Like the Welcome Dinner, there was LOTS of leftover watermelon. What a night!
On Saturday, the new students were treated to a private walking tour of downtown Iowa City, led by a wise and savvy group of seasoned St Paul's chapelites. We checked out the best places to go for lunch with friends, dinner with parent$, and of course ice cream and gelato.
What a fabulous week!
