Members of New Acropolis Boston Participate in Many Exciting Activities!

First Annual Philosophy Camp


Students from NA spent Labor Day Weekend 2006 at Lake George in New York for a Philosophy Camp. The weekend was full of exciting activities such as hiking, canoeing, and mastering Tibetan sticks. Each participant had an assigned specific role with responsibilities which created a great environment for fraternal experience. It gave students the opportunity to observe philosophy in action.

Participants work in teams to favor a fraternal experience. Students get the opportunity to observe Philosophy in Action.
 
     
School trip to visit NA in Montreal (May 2007)

A few of us spent a weekend in May visiting Montreal, catching a class at the school of NA Montreal, eating some great food and shared laughs with new found friends. Of course, the beautiful mountain views of Vermont were a free bonus in the trip. Life really is an adventure if we give it a chance to surprise us.
 
     
Japanese Tea Ceremony

In August we participated in a Japanese Tea Ceremony at the Kaji Aso Studio in Boston. Delicious tea was prepared and served by the host Ms. Kate Finnegan. The green tea we drank is called Matcha and is in the form of green powder, which is put into a bowl. Hot water is poured and then the tea is stirred with a chasen (tea wisk). It's extremely good for your health.
 
     
Philosophy in Action: New York City

Students from NA spent Memorial Day Weekend 2006 exploring New York city from a philosophical lense. The weeekend itinerary was chock full of NY city sites, although the experience was unlike most other trips for the members who attended. Stops throughout the weekend included views from the Empire State building, a picinic lunch in Central park, an afternoon at the MET, and a guided tour of NY city. Check out the itinerary of the trip. You'll be amazed of how much we were able to cover in 3 days.
