This week, the French Club celebrated Le Chandeleur. Le Chandeleur is held every February 2 in France and is a time for the French to light candles and make crepes. Tradition says that if you are able to hold a coin in one hand while flipping a crepe in the other without dropping either, you will have good luck all year. Luckily our French Club members were able to successfully flip their first crepe!
Always a great time at the Intern Expo with Fredericksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce.
