Hayride Pictures!
We had 17 entries in our soup/chili making contest (although two of the entries weren' soup or chili but dishes from Saudi Arabia). The winner of the contest was Kendra with her green chili. It was awesome! Everyone wanted her recipe. Check out the pictures to get a better idea of what went on.

Sushi Party Part VI Recap and Videos!
I think we all had a great time. There was plenty of sushi to go around which is amazing considering the great turnout.
Check out these pictures.
Here's some videos for your enjoyment (special thanks to Chad for recording the video)....
Boyu used to just play guitar beautifully. Now he plays and sings at the same time. This is Boyu from Zhongua covering Jack Johnson's "Better Together."
This piece is soothing to my soul. Jun has a nice touch. This is the first part of the song.
Here's the second part of the song.
Jun rocks out with this number. I love his use of dynamics especially...
Minako, Amber, and Jun perform "Only Hope." Enjoy these two lovely voices.
This song is an Avett Brothers cover called "Shame" performed by Will, Dave and Ben (aka "The Spicer Trio"). Notice the wonderful instrumentation; guitar, banjo and ukelele.
Boatloads of Sushi. Enough said.
Check out these pictures.

Yasu the Magician
Try to keep up with his Japanese pronunciation. He won over the H.I.S. Labor Day Picnic crowd. Hopefully he'll do the same at Sushi Party Part VI this weekend.
Yosakoi!
Here's another performance at the H.I.S. Labor Day Picnic. Yosakoi is modern Japanese folk dancing. You could probably join this group if you want to...
KSU Multicultural Dance Society
This is at the Annual H.I.S. (Helping International Students) Labor Day Picnic. Feel free to dance along friends!

Frith Community Center
(Located @ Jardine; the Jarvis & Jardine Dr. intersection)
There’s no parking so walk over with friends.
E-mail or call Ben at bendeaver@gmail.com or 785.341.9863 w/ questions and to RSVP.
$5 donation for drink/food is appreciated
…featuring Jun and Boyu and friends!!!
Yes, this is K-State's first home football game against San Jose State. I know it's crazy to have a Sushi Party at this time but you know what? We're just crazy enough to do it. So, if you are torn between the game and the sushi (or the friends at the Sushi Party) then here's an idea. Sell your ticket, wear your purple clothes, and come eat sushi. We'll have the game on the radio. Don't worry about it! Relax and join us...

Bastille Day Bash!
When: 5:30 pm 'til you go home on July 14th
Where: Ron and Marty Wellington's Directions are below
What: This is a chance for anyone who's in Manhattan over the summer to hang out, especially those from the international community. I'm guessing that Manhattan can be a boring place for many over the summer. This is one opportunity to not be bored. This cook out is hosted mostly by my small group from New Hope Church and some other friends. We'll pray before we eat. If you're unsure about what Bastille Day is go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastille_day
What to bring: Please bring your own meat to grill and a side dish to share with everyone. If you'd like to bring French food that is great but not necessary. Drinks will be provided.
Rides: Contact Ben Deaver at bendeaver@gmail.com or 785.341.9863 and leave your name, phone number, e-mail, and where you live.
Take Highway 177 like you are going out of town (towards I-70). Look for the Bayer Construction Sign on the left. Take a LEFT onto Deep Creek Road and curve around, staying on the asphalt.
Stay on the asphalt, curving to the right...
Keep goin' and then finally near the limestone school house (on the right), the road will turn to gravel. We're about a 1/2 mile from the school house (the second driveway on the right after the school house). We have 30-acre field in front of our house along the road (now planted in wheat so it's green). We have a white beat-up, powercat mail box.
Number at home is 587-0909 if you get lost.
