New SA games coming

Join wacky weekday to earn cool prizes

The Union College Student Association team is excited to announce a new event that will be occurring every week called, “wacky weekday”. Each week, there will be one small activity on campus where you can participate in a different game for the chance to win prizes. 

Social Vice President Jacob Sanchez said, “We want to offer something to the students when Union already has pre-planned Saturday nights, like during the music festival or tournament. We also want to be able to offer something to do for students outside of the normal Saturday night activities this semester. We felt like this would be a great way for that, and for students to get a study break.”

Sanchez offered a sneak peak of some of the games, “We are going to start out with a game of operation, where if students win then they can get a small prize. For this one, we will probably keep prizes pretty small so everyone has a chance to win. Later down the line we are going to switch it up, though, by offering games such as a mini basketball shooting competition. For this one we will tally up the points that everyone earned throughout the day, and offer prizes to the top performers.”

When asked if he was concerned about students not being able to participate because of class schedules he responded, “That’s not really a major concern of mine. We are going to have an SA member attending the booth from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m., so I think that pretty much everyone would have at least a couple minutes in that three hour block to play if they really wanted to.”

Wacky weekday starts today, Wednesday, Feb. 1.
