to participate in the great outdoors to foster friendships through fun
teambuilding activities.

Tết
Trung Thu 2010
Fall 2010. The Mid-Autumn Festival, a celebration
centered around the celebration of children and the harvest, is the
second largest holiday in the Vietnamese tradition. There is a large
festival organized in San Jose each year which in UVSA has been in
attendance. Starting this year, UVSA will start to steer the festival in
a new chapter in Vietnamese American history!

UVSA
Summit 2010
Fall 2010. Each year UVSA gathers members of all
affiliated VSAs to meet, greet, share ideas and experiences with one
another, setting the tone for the rest of the year. Once the hosting
school is selected, the Summit Committee will be interested in
individuals who want to shape the event to their vision.
------------------------------------------
Tết 2011
The
largest holiday in the Vietnamese tradition, UVSA has been part of
either the Vietnamese Spring Festival & Parade, or the Hội Tết
Fairgrounds. Our presence can be seen at San Francisco’s Tết Festival

play in Tết for 2011?
