Could I write about a previous summer program in my app essay?

Hi! I am applying to TASS and YYGS.
Last year, I attended EXPLORE, which was a five week French learning summer program. It was probably the best month of my entire life, and I want to mention it in my essays for these summer program applications. However, will it look bad on my part if I mention another summer program? I will be talking about why I want to go to this summer program for reasons that are not just padding my resume. I will mention anecdotes. It won’t be the focus of my essay at all, I just want to show I have a side of me that isn’t just politics and academics.

yea i think thats really smart, shows what you’ve done and why its applicable
