MULTICULTURAL STUDENT PROGRAMS & SERVICES

Presents

In conjunction with “Cougar Countdown”

Paint Ball is too Messy. Capture the Flag is too Boring.

Bongo Ball Mania is Wednesday, December 1^st

3:30 till 9:30 in Silcox Gym

 

Two teams of five don protective gladiator armor to blitz and weave through, under, over and hide behind and between obstacles while trying to capture the opposing team’s flag. Did I forget to mention the DEFENDER AIR CANNON that fires NERF footballs? Each player takes turns loading and firing the DEFENDER AIR CANNON at opposing players as they rapidly run to capture that oh-so-hard-to get-flag. Manic breathless fun that will keep everyone guessing what will happen NEXT!

DO NOT MISS OUT

Come out and relieve some much needed Student Stress in preparing for fall finals
