Best part of the weekend was attending my firs Holi festival which is put on by the local Inda-US organization here in Salem.
My former neighbor here in the apartment complex is the president of the group and he invited me to volunteer this year. I, along with two other guys, were in charge of greeting the guests and taking their food (there was a potluck) to the food table where it was labeled vegetarian or non-vegetarian (as many Indians are vegetarian).
It was a great time and I met some really nice people. A few of the residents here at my apartment complex attended as well, which was fun.
