MISSION

To work like we're getting paid and play like we're in Cancun...

ACCOMPLISHMENTS

We participated in a Blitz Build with several other universities. With roughly two schools per house, together we built eleven houses over the course of the week. Hammering, sawing, roof work, and landscaping were just a few of the things that our group did. All in all, it was tremendously rewarding to see the progress we made as a team in such a short time.

We made a place for someone to live... how GREAT is that! We discovered how amazingly rewarding community service can be, and we made lifelong memories that rival any beach vacation...

ENTERTAINMENT

Karaoke (you bet we can sing!), Jenga, football, movies...

FAVORITE QUOTES

We're lost again? Someone call Jackie..."
"DANGER. Watch yourself!"
"We never knew how wild a Piggly Wiggly could be..."
"D-I-A-Z!!!"
"I love rock 'n roll, so put another dime in the jukebox, baby!"
