Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

It isn't officially winter yet, but lots of the white stuff has already fallen blanketing the campus in white. I don't know about you, but it gets me in a holiday mood. Please don't forget about the needy family that our campus is sponsoring. Read on to find out about that and other events happening on campus.

Holiday Giving

Once again the King Campus will sponsor a needy family in York Region. This year we have been given a family of a mother and three teenagers. While it is always easy and fun to donate a gift to a small child, it is usually the older (and sometimes the more vunerable) children that go without. King Campus faculty and staff have always been enormously generous and our gifts are very much appreciated by the Salvation Army who try to provide for a growing number of needy people throughout the region. Gifts, gift certificates and donations can be dropped off at the Administration Office up to December 17th. Our family is composed of the following: 1 mother, 2 boys aged 16 and 15 and 1 girl aged 13.

King Campus Pot Luck

Mark your calendar for the annual King Campus Holiday Pot Luck Lunch. Monday, December 17th at 12:00 noon in Pod C. Look for your invitation in the mail and don't forget to RSVP to Mary-Ellen. The question on everyone's mind: will Tina cook a turkey?!

Doors Open Seneca @ King

The week of November 26th to 30th gives you the chance to visit other spots on campus during the "Doors Open Seneca" event.

One Book One Campus a success

Playwright and author Drew Hayden Taylor brought his unique brand of humour and insight to campus on November 8th. The sixth annual One Book, One Campus event organized by the King Library and generously supported by the Dean's Office, King SSF, and Rec Council was definitely a success. Lots of lucky door prize winners won copies of Drew's books and plays and had them signed by the author on the spot. Who would you like to see on campus next year? Contact Cynthia Mckeich with your suggestions.

Get ready, get set!

From Fall Fest to author readings to looking ahead to Christmas, this issue has it all. Read on, take it in, get involved and send in your ideas. Be an active part of the King community!
