Fall picnic! Wanted: big eaters and volleyball players
VCU School of Pharmacy students, faculty, staff, families and friends are invited to attend the 2013 fall picnic and … drumroll, please! … the amazing semiannual tug-of-war competition. The big event takes place 5-7 p.m. Oct. 2 at Shields Lake Shelter. Bring your kids, bring your dogs (actual, not “hot”). Food and drink are on the school.
Typically plenty of students are available to create mean, lean, tug-of-war machines. It’s a nice way to work off those burgers — and also one of Dean Victor Yanchick’s favorite events of the year, as he is allowed to call the winners. Also on tap: cornhole, touch football, Frisbee, you name it.
This year, the dean is challenging SOP faculty to come out and form a volleyball team that willing to face up to the students. Are you with us, faculty? If so, we’ll see you there Oct. 2. Net provided.
Directions: Take Boulevard South (coming from the direction of The Diamond) to the end. Turn left into Byrd Park. Follow the signs that point toward Maymont. You will see a stop sign with another Maymont sign pointing straight ahead. Continue straight. Take the next right. South Addison will be on your left. Follow the signs around to the triangle/circle and cross the bridge that separates the two lakes. After crossing the bridge, turn right and continue. The shelter entrance will be on the left.
