The club meets every Tuesday to plan activities with other International Clubs in the Seattle area. Club members had the opportunity to experience each other's cultures, societies and ideas, a well- rounding experience. This year, for the second year, the club organized International week, where exchange students from all over the state come and visit each other and Mercer Island.
