SAC Weekend De-Coded

It's safe to assume the close of Res Life Week has brought many tears and sadness to the eyes of IWU students who THINK the fun is over. However, if you fall into this category, dear friend, you are mistaken.

Behold! This weekend is the much anticipated and highly esteemed SAC Weekend! 

SAC Weekend- [SAK-week-end] noun

1. Two days of exciting activities and events planned by the IWU Student Activities Counsel.
2. An opportunity enjoy the outdoors before the snow flies (it comes sooner than you'd think).
3. Fun, fun, FUN!

Friday, September 14: The Luau!

The Luau is THE social event of the semester. Come at 7 to the Hodson/Evans lawn for an evening of free food, limbo, contests, sand volleyball and, my personal favorite: steel drums. Everyone and six of their friends will be there! Ladies, in years past the tennis team initiates their freshman by forcing them to walk around the Luau and collect as many phone numbers possible. Don't be alarmed. You can use a fake name and number if you desire. After the Luau, campus-wide capture the flag starts at 10 at the Luau stage.

Saturday, September 15

1. Picnic Lunch! Come to the Hodson/Evans lawn from 12-1 for picnic-y food in exchange for a meal swipe. In years past, the picnic has featured chicken, fruit, pasta salad, chips and pop. 
2. Chalk Art Contest: Show of your artistic skills at 12:30 on the Hodson basketball court. Not sure what to draw? Create a masterpiece featuring a mermaid, a Chinese pagoda, an octopus, or the Starbucks logo. 
3. Puppy Play Day: My favorite SAC event of the year! Scores of "awww"-inspiring puppies will flood the Hodson lawn at 1 pm, ready to play with YOU!
4. Kickball Tournament: Re-live the days of gym class glory at 1 on the Evans lawn. Only the strong will survive!
5. Soccer Tailgating: Come out and support the IWU women's soccer team at the athletic fields at 6! The Wildcats take on the Aquinas Saints at 7:15. Bring a hoodie and your voice to cheer them on to victory.
6. Movie on the Lawn: Pirates of the Caribbean will be showing at Goodman lawn following the soccer game at 9:30. Don't miss out on the perfect opportunity to snuggle up to a cute someone or other if you get chilly.
