HOE DOWN
- Held in September
- Ever wonder when would be an appropriate time to wear that flannel shirt tucked away in your closet? Now’s the time. Bust out the cowboy hats and the overalls. Dress in your country best and join the student body as we country line dance under the lights on “the mall.” A professional country line dancing instructor will teach students the moves and grooves to some popular country tunes. You won’t want to miss this night of boot-tapping, cowboy hat-tilting fun.

MUD VOLLEYBALL

ACOC
