International Games Week: Day 1: Oceania

Today marked the beginning of a new KapCC tradition: International Games Week. Today’s theme was Oceania. Snacks from around the region, like Marmite on toast, Mamaki tea, and TimTams were served outside the library. Just inside the Lama entrance, tables were set up with games from Hawai‘i, Australia, and New Zealand. Tomorrow and throughout this week, Kapi‘o will be covering Games Week as it progresses.
