Hey tumblr! It’s Tropa welcoming a brand new and exciting semester! Today was our First General Meeting and we’d just like to thank everyone that was able to come out! Without you there Tropa wouldn’t be what it is today. I hope many more of you continue to come to our future meetings because this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are more events that will be coming in the future such as our spring picnic, beach day, LA marathon, and PCN! 

Now on to some fun stuff:

This Saturday March 10 will be Tropa’s Spring Picnic! Come to Eaton Blanche Park in Pasadena from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm. Enjoy a nice day at the park and get to know your awesome/sexy/wonderful board members and your awesome general members a little better with some exciting ice breakers and activities. Bring some extra clothes as for some activities may require getting down and dirty ;D And also remember that it is a potluck so feel free to bring something you can share with others! Externals are welcomed as well! Stop by if you can make it! Let’s get to know each other better and bring that Filipino fun on ;D

NOTE: There will be carpools in case you can’t get a ride to Eaton Blanche Park! Come to PCC at 9:00 am and we will take you there! After the picnic we can take you back to PCC

Hope to see everyone there! Follow us on Facebook and Twitter!

LAHV! <3
