Well, we're back and ready to kick off Winter quarter. Come to the first general meeting this Wednesday to find out what going on. Read on for more... -Rock =================================================================== >>>>>> Upcoming Events =================================================================== - - GENERAL MEETING - FREE FOOD - GENERAL MEETING - FREE FOOD - - Come to the General Meeting this Wednesday, Jan 17 @ 7pm in the Green Room (Upstairs in Mott Gym). We'll be telling ya all about the stuff going on this quarter. We'll be talking about Baseball in the new stadium, the new Student Section at Men's Basketball games, the Superbowl party, Tahoe ski trip, and more! Don't miss out on the free food! For those who live in the dorms: it's beats VG's or the Lighthouse anyday! Welcome to Baggett Stadium, the new home of Mustang Baseball! This multimillion dollar sports complex also came with a new stadium for the baseball team. I know it doesn't seam like baseball season already, but the first game in the new stadium is this Sunday @ 1pm. Since the new stadium is over in the aggie part of Cal Poly, many people don't even know how to get there. Running Thunder be providing free Hay Rides to the game so you don't have to worry about getting there. The Hay Ride truck will be crusing around the dorms starting at Noon and picking anyone up who wants to go to the game. You don't have to be a Running Thunder member to get a ride. (Membership is free so why wouldn't you be a member?) Anyway, just look out for the Hay Ride truck starting at Noon on Sunday and get a free ride to the stadium. Parking's probably going to be a bitch, but if you want to drive and try to park or ride your bike, then just go to the Campus Market and keep going to BFE. The sports complex and stadium will be on your left after the parking lots. =================================================================== >>>>>> Student Section at Men's Basketball Games =================================================================== Tried of old people with their little 10 year old kids telling you to watch your mouth because you told the other team that they suck? It doesn't just bug Running Thunder, it bugs all students. Why can't they sit with the rest of the families and old people? We've decided to step in help the students out. You're going to see a big ass Student Section banner and it's going to be in center court. That whole side of the stands (where students usually sit) is going to be for students. So help the Mustangs and students come together! Sit in the student section (probably where you normally sit), and with all the students together (without the parents and little kids), we can all be load, roudy, and support our team. This isn't a Running Thunder section. We're just labeling that left side of the gym the student section to get rid of the old people and little kids. Need some incentive? We'll be giving away some free stuff to students sitting in the student section. Feel free to bring signs to the game. The only word that athletics doesn't really like on signs is "Suck." So use another word or just risk them taking it away from you. Finally, for those who haven't heard, Coach Schneider has been fired! Just about anyone will tell you that it's a good thing. Assistant coach Kevin Bromley will be taking his place for the rest of the year. And if it's any sign, the Mustangs kicked UC Riverside's ass 102-66 in their first game with out Schneider. =================================================================== >>>>>> Ski Trip =================================================================== Tahoe Ski Trip! Snow! Gambling! Partying! Feb 17, 18, 19 We'll be talking about it at the General Meeting and passing out an interest list. It will be cheap and fun!
