CB Spotlight: Week of 11/18/2013

St. Mary's Carnival
Hosted by: St. Mary's RA Staff
CB Category: Unitas
Objective: Throw a carnival for residents with different games, a raffle, and snacks from local businesses

Ray Ducheine, St. Mary's RA who participated in planning the carnival, shared the following about making this huge event a success:
The St. Mary's Carnival was organized by each staff member having a category of tasks and reaching out to our resources on and off campus to accomplish them. Residence Life, Student Development, and Greek Life were able to lend us games and raffle tickets. Athletics was able to give us a time slot in the gym. Food was donated by Shake Shack and Meltdown. Our crafting queen Michelle provided us with decoration ideas for the gym. We made catchy advertisements in the building and used social media to help spread the word! The main event of the carnival was 'Pie Your RA'. In order to do this, participants had to have five raffle tickets. The raffle tickets were obtained by participating at the carnival booths. They were Connect Four, Fish Bowl, Spin the Wheel, Ring Toss, Can Slam, Guess the Amount, Corn Hole, and Basketball Knockout. The raffle tickets could also be used for winning Chipotle gift cards and Villanova t-shirts.
