First Hunt Relay

On Sunday, October 24, we had the First Hunt Relay. A competition for men, between men, to see which of our inspirational groups most deserved to hold the First Hunt Cup of Glory. We had 14 hall-mates
show up looking for fame. They were divided into 4 groups depending on their inspirational group (Jeremy Dejournett joined the writers so he could be on an even numbered team). Then, at the sound of Evan
Strother's booming voice, the relay commenced. Four teams furiously completed the eleven events, ranging from a peanut butter sandwich eating race, to leapfrogging to the middle of the circle and back. Kerry
Ellwanger set the Athletes off to a fast start by finishing the peanut butter sandwich before any other competitor followed shortly by Jeremy Dejournett, but Jeremiah Mcleod and Vitchyr Pong brought their teams
back in the Somersault and Hand Walking events. In the end, the three victorious competitors were those from the Thinker group: Grady Nash, Morgan Rothe, and Vitchyr Pong. All three proudly lifted the cup
high amidst streaming rays of sunlight to proclaim their victory.

Ultimate

Like champions, First Hunt marched all the way to the championship in ultimate frisbee last week. Though we lost, we had great participation, and hopefully have the Chancellors cup in our grasp!

Bullying

Wednesday the hall had a Hot Topics program centered on the recent cyber bullying that has been presented in the media. We focused on the Rutgers college student who committed suicide after being harassed for being a homosexual. The topic brought a great turnout, and there were many sides to the conversation. The debate was whether cyber bullying could be considered murder if it led to suicide and privacy issues on the Internet.

Hall Activities

Hello everyone,

Evan again. Welcome back to the 1st Hunt blog! My co-RLAs and I have been hard at work planning activities for the enjoyment of our residents. We've had a very productive past couple months for programming, and we have a lot more coming for the rest of the year.

Last month, in September we had quite a few accomplishments program-wise as a hall. Amongst other things, we learned how to Bhangra, went to CiCi's pizza, and had our monthly Ping-Pong tournament. The residents are really enjoying life on 1st Hunt, and I have had a wonderful pleasure working with all of them. Many of our residents thoroughly enjoyed our trip to CiCi's and we ate over 100 slices of pizza. Oh, and lastly, I would just like to give a shout out to our Intramural soccer efforts over the course of September. We finished second place in IM soccer!




For October, we have planned quite a few things. Amongst other things, we'll have our first paper airplane contest, our hall talent show, and our 1st Hunt relay. The 1st Hunt relay is my personal favorite, it should involve almost everyone on hall, and will incorporate many different sorts of activities in order to accommodate all interests on hall. Another big event will be our first hall talent show. We encourage any of our residents to come out and show us any talent or gift they may have, whether they can play guitar or do a handstand. Lastly, to wrap it all off, the school will have a Halloween dance October 30. Its the perfect ending to a month of fun-filled activities.

Hope you have a great day!

Sincerely,
Evan Strother
