Marshall Islands Club (MIC)
The Marshall
Islands Club has been one of the school's favorite clubs. The purpose
of this club is to host schools students from a
neighboring island called Ebeye. These students come to Kwaj High to
experience what school is like for students here. After the hosting,
they play games and go to the bowling alley. The main purpose of this
club is to interact and get to know our Marshallese neighbors.
Another activity that the club sponsors is
Christmas on Carlos. The Kwaj students prepare for their visit to
another neighboring island, Carlos. They collect money from classes
7th-12th. The class who gets the highest
amount of money gets to have a pizza lunch party. With the money, MIC
buys food like rice, corn beef, Vienna sausage, and other favorites
for
the people on Carlos. Each family on Carlos receives a box full of
these things.
During the Christmas visit, the Kwaj students also set up games for
the kids like breaking of the piņata, bean-bag toss, limbo, and other
activities like tattoo stickers. Santa also goes along to the trip on
Carlos.
It's a great way to meet new acquaintances and friends.
MIC with the People of Carlos
Little girls on Carlos play while waiting for the day to begin. Playing together has always been the way for these little boys. Residents of Carlos wait patiently while MIC explains what they are there for. Senior and one of the leaders of MIC Arlene Bolkeim helps Santa with this Carlos baby girl. Resident of Carlos Keinta Anitak opens the first gift box and shows the rest of the people what is inside. Santa takes a picture with a shy Carlos boy. MIC takes a final shot with Santa before he leaves. Marshall Islands Club takes one last photo with the neighboring friends before the day ends.
