Thanksgiving Feast & Fun
Thanksgiving is an iconic American holiday and one we celebrate with gusto here in Singapore! For years, AAS has hosted a Thanksgiving event of some sort. We've had dinners, Turkey Trots and even a fancy event on a tall ship in 2021. This 2022? We had a giant, family get together. Such fun!
About the Event
In 2022, people gobbled up the fun and stuffed themselves silly. Americans, non-Americans, family, friends, children, and people you meet on the street were all welcome to share in our special family celebration!
Thanksgiving is one of the most iconic American holidays so we are celebrating right with an all-American event. Our 2022 event was co-hosted by the American Association of Singapore (AAS) and American Women's Association (AWA) held at the beautiful campus of XCL American Academy (XAA), the event's sponsor.
THE FOOD
We had a massive feast with all the traditional dishes: turkey, stuffing, potatoes, sweet potatoes, veggies, pumpkin pie, apple pie and more!
THE CRAFTS
Kids of all ages to keep enjoyed crafts galore to keep them busy, all aimed to reinforce the message of giving thanks. And these aren't those crafts you get in plastic bags either. Nope! These are the real deal, folks: special crafts the way you made them when you were a kid back in the States.
FOOD DRIVE
We collected food items to donate to Food From the Heart.
