CCTV

CCTV stands for Capital Community Television. The studio is near TIUA. It took about 5 minutes by car. For the last two years some TIUA students have gone to the studio for filming. Students were already filming about Japanese culture such as marbles, kytes, calligraphy, kendama, and paper sumo in 2011. It was great experiences for students. They spent a lot of time to prepare for this project and improved their English skills. The film will be on the TV.

Hatfield Fountain

Some Willamette University students call this the chicken fountain.  It looks like chikens but they are really eagles. It is a famous spot in Willamette University. People use to wait for someone and a taxi there. The third picture seems really cool. It was taken during spring break. After that, someone cleaned the Hatfiled Fountain.

This is The Capital State of Oregon near Willamette University in Salem. It has a nice garden. People can enjoy a picnic a walk or play frisbee on the lawn. In the building people can see many types of information about Oregon. There is no cost to visit. If someone wants to learn about Oregon it is the great place.

Lu'au

The Willamette University Hawaii Club had the 22st Annual Lu'au on April 16th at Sparks Center. It was awesome.
Guests enjoyed Hawaiian foods, music and dance performances.There was a fire dance. It was the most exciting part of the show.

The Hawaii club sold 1,000 tickets. That was great. Everybody was satisfied with this show.
The show was from 7pm to 9pm. Before the show the band performed on the stage. Their music made the show even better.

POW WOW

The POW WOW was interesting. There were many accessories, costumes and Native Americans.
Native American people performed dances and songs of their music. It was awesome. They were serious and cool.
The Indian tacos were delicious but waiting in line took a long time.
