Law’s Model U.N. Club hosted their first annual “International Eatery” on December 19 to help raise money for the club’s trip in March to New York City.

The eatery had a ton of food from many different nationalities.

The lunch consisted of many different dishes and desserts from around the world for all the students and faculty to try during their lunch waves.  The club was able to raise over $500 between all three lunch waves.

“Students got to come eat the food offered instead of eating the school lunch,” senior president Sofya Calvin said.  “Local businesses and students in club all donated food from all nationalities.”

The cost to get one plate of food was $5. All of the money is going to help fund a field trip the club is taking later this year.

There were many different kinds of rice and pasta dishes that were offered and local businesses such as Papa’s Pizza donated pizza for the event.  Other local businesses such as Honey Spot and Napoli also donated food for the eatery.

The event took a lot of planning and club members had to make sure there was enough food for all three lunch waves.

“The students did really well and felt strongly about the event,” Model U.N. Club co-advisor Ms. Burns said.  “They all worked hard to create the event and did a great job.”

The club hosted the eatery to help pay for a trip to New York City in March where they will meet with other high school Model UN students from the U.S. and around the world.  This will be the second year that the club will be going on this trip.

“The eatery was entirely student run which was pretty remarkable,” Model U.N. co-advisor Mr. Evanko said.  “I’m extremely passionate about the club and I am glad that there are students who are excited about the club and want to participate.”

The food was buffet style where the students were able to fill up their plates with as much as they wanted and were able to sit with friends in the auditorium and eat their lunch there.

The eatery gave students different options of food to try instead of bringing in their own food or eating the lunch offered at school.
