Third
Annual
Pre-Game
Block pARTy
October 2, 2004 |
This
year’s pARTy was part of the Homecoming Weekend whirl of activity
for hundreds of delighted students, staff and faculty, alumni, and
community friends, who spent two hours before the football game taking
in the celebration of arts and sports.
|
Campus
organizations offered participatory arts-related fun, plus information
about themselves. |
| |
|
|
| ABC
decorated custom hats for pARTygoers. |
The
custom button machine is popular every year. |
ACACIA
created pretty glass bead jewelry. |
 |
 |
 |
| Make
your own political sticker—a creative idea for election
season. |
LAF
collected money for the Red Cross local flood relief. |
This
Ultimate Frisbee player rested briefly at the table. |
|
| |
|
| The
Arts Society showed that there was nothing icky about creating
exquisite corpses. |
Every
little girl (and some big ones) wanted NIA to braid her
hair. |
|
|
 |
| The
Marquis Players encouraged inner children to make paper
bag puppets. |
LACSA
offered t-shirts and bright smiles. |
|
|
|
|
| Sanda
chowed down at the ACA table. |
ISA
wrote names in Chinese and Urdu! |
The
Marquis literary magazine was hot off the press. |
| |
|
|
| After
her lunch, Sanda moved on to LAF's henna tattoos. |
Those
are some cool toppers! |
The
neuroscientists joined the pARTy for the first time. |
|
Student
performers kept the pARTy lively at both ends of the block. |
| |
|
|
| Campus
favorites Dan and Amanda opened the pARTy. |
Cadence
filled the air with sweet sounds. |
The
Lafayette Dancers were an energetic presence. |
| |
|
|
| The
Hispanic Society's dancers drew a crowd. |
Polo
shirts and harmony were the order of the day for the Chorduroys.
|
The
Pep Band hustled between the pARTy, the alumni bash, and the
game. |
|
|
Student
art brightened the day. |
|
|
 |
| Lisa
Klenn and her mom offered a variety of colorful hand-painted creations. |
Caitlin
Chandler displayed and sold her beautiful jewelry. |
| |
 |
| Danielle
Schreier works magic with a Polaroid camera to create her art. |
Sara
Kreisel's mom helped keep an eye on her tableful of hand-thrown
pots. |
|
| All
kinds of activities spanned the block from Hamilton to McCartney. |
| |
|
|
| Oh,
those wacky college kids. |
Lunch
is a very important feature of the pARTy. |
"Wassamatta,
kid? I'm a friendly Pard." |
 |
 |
|
Aflicktion
set up a Frisbee course behind their table. |
The
Counseling Center decorated cookies and offered Green Zone information.
|
|
|
 |
|
Did
we mention the importance of lunch? The Almond Tree (left), The
Quadrant (right), and Lafayette Dining Services (below, right)
kept bellies full and taste buds happy.
|
 |
 |
Rita's
Italian Ice was a refreshing (and free!) dessert. |
 |
 |
 |
|
The
tattoo artists were busy all morning. |
Assistant
Dean of Students Amy Ahart got a new 'do. |
Lawns
up and down the street were full of pARTyers. |
 |
 |
Smiling
faces...that's what we like to see! |
 |
 |
 |
This
little girl needed some persuading to accept a pink balloon critter
from Stephen. (Looks like the young fellow behind her has escaped
the Pard.) |
Hey,
everybody likes balloons! |
