Beach Party Fun 2015!!!

LSI kicked off its annual beach party on Friday, Aug 28^th in Huntington Beach. The weather welcomed everyone with a warm and beautiful opportunity to enjoy the cool ocean water. All schools flew their colors and motivated their volleyball team to do their best. This year’s championship went to the Los Angeles Angels. Congratulations to them for their efforts and competitive spirit. 

One of the best things about the beach party is the energy students bring to support their classmates and their school. The beach party presents an opportunity for students and teachers to break from the normal routine and just have a day dedicated to fun. It’s always nice to see everyone have a good time and remember that a new language is about creating new relationships that will help them in their goal to succeed using English. 

The water games followed the tournament with plenty of excitement. Between tug of war and eating crazy foods, students got a plenty of sun and sun tans. There were powerful teams and teams that surprised everyone. It was an exciting combination of people flinging water and sand, the sun’s heat intense rays, and an overwhelming venue of excitement. To keep that energy going, this year’s lunch was a delicious Chinese food box that got plenty of good reviews. It was an unexpected, but pleasant surprise.

Overall, it was a fun day at the beach and one that many students will surely remember. Thank you to everyone who participated and we hope to see you all again next year in our Language Systems Beach Party. Have fun and enjoy the rest of your summer.

Beach Party & Volleyball Tournament

@LSIOC

        LSI’s Beach Party is one of the biggest events of the year for students excited about experiencing an unforgettable summer in beautiful Southern California! This year, LSI decided to try something new and changed this exciting party to a new location, the Annenberg Community Beach House in Santa Monica, one of LA’s best kept secrets! Located near the iconic Santa Monica Pier, this year’s party was full of new things to see and do.  

 @LSINE

      Everything kicked off with the volleyball tournament in some intense and exciting matches. LSI OC came out on top, above all others, winning every match. The LSI staff worked relentlessly to make sure everyone had food, great customer service, and tons of fun. The ice bucket challenge raised $165 for ALS and the strange foods competition served to illuminate the facility with student cheers of excitement, drawing in the public with energetic curiosity. The strong tides roughed up students in the beach games, providing entertainment for all onlookers. The tug-of-war title was taken again by LSI Downtown, adding another title to their massive collection.

       Other beach games included filling a large bucket with sea water or fetching a stick in the wave break and bringing it back to the sand finish line.  Students and staff took advantage of the canopies, pool, restaurant, and courtyard umbrella tables in full force. The new facility made things much more convenient for people in many ways, and the view didn't hurt either. The change of location provided a new possibility for parties to come. We all look forward to next year's beach party and hope everyone had an unforgettable experience!
