Let’s get out and enjoy some crisp autumn air! Burn some calories and hang out with friends before Thanksgiving. Very casual afternoon of frisbee, football, kickball, dodgeball, maybe even Quidditch?!?
Meet at Green Lake, Field 1. Bring sports equipment and dress appropriately.
NOTE: This event is weather-permitting; in case of inclement weather, this event will NOT happen. We will make the call on the morning of the event. Stay tuned to this description for cancellation plans.
Holiday Greetings 2017!
TAP-Seattle is happy to join National Association of Asian American Professionals – Seattle (NAAAP-Seattle) again in hosting this year’s Holiday Mixer / Holiday Drive to fundraise for Asian Counseling & Referral Service (ACRS)!
MIXER:
We are having our event at Stone Lounge in Bellevue! This is our last mixer for 2017, so come and say hi to your friends and make new friends! Stop by our mixer before or after your other activities!
HOLIDAY DRIVE:
Attendees are asked to come prepared with monetary donation of your choice that will go to less-fortunate families and ACRS programs. Donations will help fund the following:
We suggested any donation ranging from $5 (minimum) to $50+, to
pool together to buy grocery, blanket, warm socks, umbrella, flashlights, for senior, disabled, and youth for the winter holiday season
A sample list of what ACRS can get to assist their clients:
$35
Adjustable aprons used for employment training programs for cafe and hospitality jobs to assist clients skills they need to make a living
$50
Cover unreimbursed medical expenses for Wellness for Asian Pacific American (WAPA) projects so they can access specialty care and needed medication
$75
Purchase of walkers or other durable medical equipment for aging adult clients
For this holiday season, be thankful of what you have and what you can do to help others in need. Come out and celebrate the holiday spirit with us. We want to wish you a wonderful holiday cheer before the end of 2017!

Come paint with TAP-Seattle and explore your artistic side! We’ll be painting a beautiful twilight hued Taipei skyline.
You will get to sketch famous buildings in Taipei and arrange them to create your dream skyline (and add some holiday personal touch to it too!). We will also be presenting trivia facts about the famous architecture so that the next time you visit Taipei, you will not only recognize these landmarks but you will also be able to share interesting facts with your friends.
Canvas, brush, and paint will be provided! Bring your own apron (or paint very carefully!) There will also be a raffle (prize sponsored by OCAC). All participants will have a chance to take home the prize!
This event is family-kid friendly with a creative art activity corner for the kids (under 12)! Let us know if you are bringing a kid so we can plan accordingly. No additional fee for bringing kids but we request that you bring only one kid per paying person (over 12).
Hurry up and sign up as the capacity is limited to 25 people (excluding kids)! A waitlist will be available once the capacity is filled.
Total time: Check-in will start at 2:30pm and the instruction will start at 3pm. The total painting time is expected to be 1.5 hours.
Price: $15 early bird (until 11/29), $20 regular, NO WALK-IN ALLOWED.
Parking: Free parking in the lot

Chefs will assign tasks based on individual skill and comfort level.
We ask that you commit to volunteering for the entire time, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. We also ask that in the case of cancellation you provide us with as much notice as possible—this is very important as we need a certain number of volunteers to produce meals and often need to recruit replacements.
For more information about the organization we will be volunteering with, see www.farestart.org
Join us on this winter night (2/22) to play games with new and old friends. It’s time again to enjoy a night of board games and amazing company. This is the event for you if you’ve been wanting to get that thrill that only board games can replicate. A variety of snacks and different board games will be provided but feel free to bring your own games to share. Prepare for an intense night of cooperation, betrayal, and competition.
Instructions on how to enter the building will be posted 30 minutes prior to the event. Players of all experience levels are welcome.
