Relay For Life 2009
This past Friday and Saturday was Relay for Life. There were people all over, tents all across the field and great food… for a price.
I’m not sure how much we raised total by the end of the night, but from the last check in with the money, it was over $25,000. Tri Sigma made over $800 and Science club made over $600.
So, what did I do from 5pm to 2am? I walked, checked out the many booths, tabled for Science Club and got the chance to sing on stage with my sorority sisters.
A little after midnight, the science club table started to get slow, so we started to play games. Meredith, the president, got a bunch of paper, so we could play M.A.S.H., a game I’m pretty sure that was invented by middle schoolers, but hey, it was a lot of fun until 2 am.
There were raffles at some of the tents. I won a flightseeing tour over Miami from the Hillel tent. Very exciting. I get the tickets for that tomorrow.
There was a tent of Italian ice, which I call water ice because thats what you call it if your from Philadelphia or New Jersey. The guy asked me where I was from and I told him Philly, and that I was shocked that people could figure that out since I was raised over seas.
I still have to go through all the photos I took for Relay and then the ones that everyone else loaded! I took a bunch with Michelle, messing around with the settings on my camera. Then while we weren’t looking, some of our classmates were taking photos of us too, so there are a lot of Relay for Life photos!
I love Relay and I can’t wait for next year! Science Club has a bunch of new ideas for it.
Once my laptop stops acting up, I will add photos from this weekend!
