The Youth and Cultural Committee kicked off the year with a vibrant meet and greet at Sunset Beach Park in Issaquah. Organized by core members Shubhechha Shakya and Soniya Kunwar, the event drew a notable attendance of 15 individuals,[a] not including the committee members and Board of Directors (BOD). The BOD present were Era Budhathoki, Sophia Kunwar, and Pramod Devkota.

Originally scheduled from 1 to 3 p.m., the event was extended to 4 p.m. in response to enthusiastic participation. The afternoon was filled with engaging games, delicious food, and ample opportunities for networking and socializing.

The gathering also served as an opportunity to connect with the community and gather valuable input from the youth regarding future committee activities. We were thrilled to receive numerous creative ideas from participants, which will inspire our planning for upcoming events.

We are excited to build on this momentum and continue expanding our community’s engagement with more dynamic activities in the future.

The Nepal Seattle Society (NSS) proudly hosted the Annual Youth Soccer Camp 2024 from June to August across three locations in the Greater Seattle Metro Area, serving over 120 participants aged 6 to 18. The final weekend and closing ceremony brought together attendees from Woodinville, Kent, and Dupont/JBLM for a memorable conclusion. This event, organized in partnership with Nepal Seattle FC—a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to community well-being—highlighted our commitment to fostering youth development and community engagement.
