The faculty/staff/family sea aka The Vitamin Sea, getting ready for the opening ceremony of the SAS olympics. There have never been this many people crammed into the stairways waiting to get into the union. It was an exciting night.

Our fearless tug-of-war team: Craig C., Tami B., Robert O., Eric N., Bob C., Jason L., Mandee W., me, Sharon C., and JP Had it not been for an unfortunate tilt of the ship, we definitely would have won!

Mandee and Jason sewing themselves together with a spoon: up one arm, down the opposite leg during the Hidden Temple Quiz. It was a close one, but fortunately with the head start our team won, we won the challenge.
