SAGE Cultural Day

Friday Afternoon:
Saturday afternoon we returned to our hotel and practiced our presentation for Cultural Day.



We set up our USA/Santa Monica booth then prepared for our country presentation. Our SAGE students collaborated with Holy Angels SAGE Team from Buffalo, NY (the USA second place team), to present the east and west coast of America in the Cultural Day presentation.
The teams also set up exhibit tables. It was a long afternoon, with many technical difficulties with sound, PowerPoint presentations and computer compatibility issues but most teams were able to present. Our slot was near the end of the program and most of us were tired and having trouble staying awake.
When our turn came, the Holy Angels group went first and then the Samo SAGE students got the energy going and did a fine presentation.

The presentations from the different countries were interesting and most were very polished. Thirteen countries presented but more teams are due to arrive tomorrow. After the presentations, it was time to go around to the various country team tables to see their country exhibits and share, barter, giveaway or sell country or team products. Team Santa Monica SAGE shared California State and USA lapel pins.

Tomorrow is 1st Round Presentation Day!!
