Weekend to Mexico Feel like your weekends seem to drag on as you sit around your room thinking of what to do around Stockton? Well the weekend of April 21st, the Spanish department is hosting a trip to Tijuana Mexico (Baja)! The trip will consist of many cultural learning experiences such as taking a tour of Tijuana by Gidi Loza (a local writer), visiting Centro Cultural Universitario (Cultural center), El Bordo (US/Mexico Border), and even visiting Revolución street (which is host to many historic bars and cantinas).
Starting to sound interesting? If it is, the trip is $100 (which includes round trip and tour) and lodging and food is separate ($50 for hotel room and food is left to you, around $40). Everyone is welcome and if you are like me and haven’t received or But, because the concert is a way of encouraging students to take on community service, The Roots tried to reschedule their previous arrangements in order to book the concert. However, they were unable to do so and Slightly Stoopid will be taking on Pacific instead. The concert is put on as a coordinated effort between ASuop and the Center for Community Involvement (CCI). Students are encouraged to volunteer for ten hours in the Stockton Community, log their service, and attend the concert for free! These students also get to attend a free reception prior to the concert. Any amount of community service beyond the initial ten hours can be credited towards raffle prizes. Those who do not participate in community service can purchase tickets at the box office or a ASuop. Tickets are $25 regular admission and $15 for students. even applied for a passport, it’s ok. All you need is a birth certificate since the trip will be taken on a Luxury Volvo Bus (equipped with TV and restroom)! So if you want to step outside the box for a weekend, take a walk on the other side of the border and come along for a culturally enriching experience!
