UBC hosts holiday dinner for students unable to get home

UBC's 7th Annual Christmas Dinner for Students will help over 200 students unable to get home for the holidays get into the festive spirit by offering a traditional turkey dinner with all of the trimmings. With door prizes, music and caroling and even a visit from the jolly elf himself, it will be a great opportunity for students - many away from family at Christmas for the first time in their lives - to take part in holiday celebrations away from home.

The event is sponsored by UBC Awards and Financial Aid, UBC Chaplains, Counselling Services, the Disability Resource Centre, Food Services, Housing and Conferences, International House, the Registrar's Office, Student Health Services and the Women Students' Office. Tickets are just $2 ($5 at the door) and student ID is required.

  • Date: Thursday, Dec. 23
  • Time: Two sittings at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.
  • Place: International House, 1783 West Mall (corner of West Mall and Northwest Marine Drive)

Parking is available at Fraser River Parkade (enter at Gate 4 off Northwest Marine Drive) or Rose Garden Parkade (adjacent to the Chan Centre on Northwest Marine Drive). There is limited meter parking at the Museum of Anthropology, 6393 Northwest Marine Drive.
