Hawaiian Shaved Ice: A Cool Break on a Hot Day

There is nothing like Hawaiian Shaved Ice on a hot Southern California Day. The fluffy ice texture, mimicking real snow is a nice treat when temperatures are on the rise or the air conditioning on the fritz.

OTA Employees didn’t have to go far for some reprieve after the air conditioning stopped working. While repairs were being made, the Kona Ice Truck came right to their door. Flavors like Pina Colada, Wild Watermelon, Very Cherry, Orange Sunshine and Bahama Mama—a tropical blend of orange, pineapple, and coconut—were there for everyone's choosing.

“Maybe the AC should go out every day," says Student Support Specialist Sean Mar.

The air conditioning was not only fixed but employees got to enjoy some fun time together.
