Waffle Night at the Institute

Each Friday we sponsor a "Waffle Night" as a way of providing a safe, wholesome place for the YSAs and their friends to gather and socialize.  Among those pictured here are long-time members as well as investigators invited by the missionaries. That night we also hosted some visitors from the YSA Branch in Juneau who had flown up to attend the Anchorage Temple; they were so pleased to get to know some of the Anchorage YSAs.. 
 We had a crazy "Waffle Night" on April 19. Behind the group playing dominoes, another group is playing Family Feud.  To the right Mary is posing with our final Mickey waffle of the night when we ran out of batter. (The kids especially love the Mickey Mouse waffles.)

Here some of our ping-pong players are demonstrating their technique.  Not shown is a large (individually and collectively) Samoan priest quorum of darling and hungry boys who crashed the party and wanted waffles, too. Waffle Nights are great for the long, dark Alaskan winters, but we will discontinue them in a few weeks.  Our sunlight hours are getting gloriously long, and everyone will be eager to
be outside in the evenings.
