Men's Volleyball game

Tonight at 8:00 the Men's volleyball team is hosting Grove City College in the Field House. Most students don't even know we have a Men's Volleyball team. It is a club sport and they are doing good this year. Your support at the game would be greatly appreciated by them. Hope to see everyone there! :)

Haiti Relief Effort

Hey Everyone! Last year our Men's Soccer team donated their old jersey's to an orphanage in Haiti. After seeing how bad the conditions are there Men's soccer Head coach Matt Thompson and men's soccer players began to organize a group of student athletes to begin a Haiti Relief Effort at SRU. I am a member of this group and we are trying to raise $25,000 to donate clothes,food, and sports equipment to the children of Haiti. On April 25-26 we are holding an all night Sport-a-thon. We are having all types of sports such as roller hockey,volleyball,soccer,basketball,dodgeball, ultimate frisbee etc. and in addition to the sports we are having other activities such as a dance party, rock climbing possibly battle of the bands etc. The event will run from 9:00pm on the 25th until noon on the 26th of April. I will have more information on the event as we plan it. Sign-ups will be held during common hour every tues-thurs. until the event. We will also be doing other activites to help raise money throughout April. Any help and support would be greatly appreciated. There is a group on facebook called the "Haiti Relieft Effort" that gives more information and also provides a great video of the orphange in Haiti and how bad the conditions are. The video is also on Youtube.com under the Haiti Relief Effort by SRU Forgotten Angels. There is also a website for the group the web address is www.sruforgottenangels.com

Hope to see everyone signing up for the events! Thanks!

Backpacking trip

Hey everyone! Hope you had a great spring break! I just came from outdoor pursuits and we are preparing for our backpacking trip in two weeks. I was wondering if anyone had any tips for the trip because I am not looking forward to it. I am missing our first volleyball tournament to go on the trip and I hate being cold and wet outside. Any advice would be great. Thanks :)

DVD H

Hey everyone! After staying with a friend's family for spring break I'm learning a lot about new technology. My friend's dad has a job to work with computers and help create new TV technology. At dinner last night we were talking about the new and upcoming DVD-H. This new hand held TV is able to pick up any TV station the provider allows. It is different from a streamimng TV station because it is immediate. I thought this was interesting but really who needs to have a TV with them at all times?
