This years Hike was one of the best so far, as there where no shortage of runners and people who came in today. Helpful students volunteered to direct cars to parking spaces and hand out waters to runners. Students enjoyed fun and new games like Gummy Bear Toss, Ultimate Banana Frisbee, and Ice Cream Football. The DC staff cooked and provided food for tired runners and students. Vanessa gave a wonderful message at the closing chapel.
