Board Announcements
Vice President
Hi, OYFA!
On November 8th at 10AM, OYFA will be holding its interim elections where we elect interim board and council positions that were installed after our regular election period. Please join us for this event as we need half of our constituents (paid members) to begin the elections.
In addition to the interim positions we are already electing, we also have two occupancies that are open. The position of (1) Community Chair and (2) D7 Representative are currently open for anyone to run for. All are welcome to run for these positions, no experience is required, and first years are welcome to run as well.
If you are interested in either the position of Community Chair or D7 Representative or have questions about the interim procedure, please contact me (Elexa Rallos) at epr5fj@virginia.edu.
Thanks guys, I hope you will consider attending interim elections or running for the two positions I listed above. Have a great week!

OYFAMILIA!
Thank you so much to everyone who helped Culture over the past month of practices, stress, and craziness! OYFA's performance was successful because of all of you (General Membs, Babies, Dancers, Board, Council, Over, Past Cultures) and just we appreciate you all so much! Culturefest season is now over! However, please look forward to our next big event ~Barrio :3 If you feel like reminiscing, please watch the video below. Who knows how many times I've already seen it

Historic
Hey everyone!
Did you happen to miss out on seeing the babies' ~electrifying~ performance at Culturefest alongside OYFA's president and Recording Secretary? Babies, did you want to see what your performance looked like from the audience's perspective? Upperclassmen, feeling reminiscent from your Culturefest years ago? WELL LOOK NO FURTHER.
You can find the video from this year's Culturefest right here! You can also see the performances from the second year class, third year class, and fourth year class on our YouTube channel here!
Additionally, thanks so much to everyone who came out to Filipino Food Night last Thursday! We hope you enjoyed the performances and the food, especially if it was your first time ever having Filipino food!
Historically,
HistoRich and HistoRose
