Summer Chapter Party

🌞 CISV New York Summer Chapter Party!

Sunday, June 6 | Cortlandt Manor, NY

Let’s kick off the summer together!

Join fellow CISV NY members, families, and friends for an afternoon of food, fun, and community. Celebrate all we’ve accomplished this year — and connect across cultures before our programs take off!

🎉 Who’s Invited

Everyone in the CISV NY community — members, alums, families, and friends.

Whether you’re traveling with a program or staying local this summer, you’re part of the celebration!

🍽️ Food with Purpose: Global Picnic Potluck

Let’s celebrate diversity and reduce food waste! Bring a dish inspired by a culture you connect with — your own heritage or a culture you want to explore. We will arrange the dishes to balance the menu and ensure we have enough for 6–8 people.

• Last names A–G: Mains / Entrées
• Last names H–M: Snacks / Appetizers
• Last names N–S: Sides / Salads
• Last names T–Z: Desserts

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Carpool & Connection

Let’s travel together! If you can offer or need a ride, indicate it in the form — we’ll help match drivers and passengers.

🏖️ Don’t Forget

There’s a pool!

Bring your bathing suit, towel, sunscreen, and plenty of good energy.

👕 Merch & Memories

The Junior Branch will be selling CISV NY gear — shirts, hoodies, and more — perfect for trading or gifting.
