Evening Entertainment

Saturday evening, we will close the ceremonies with pizza at Mike's Grill; If you're still up for some fun, there's Cosmic Bowling in the BreakZONE recreation area of the Student Center! (In the dark, no one knows if you're a good bowler or a bad one. And no one cares!)

TimeWhereWhoActivity
6:30-8:00 Mike's Grill Conference Participants ICAM pays for the pizza!
8:00-10:00 117 Squires Student Center (BreakZONE) Conference Participants It's cosmic bowling time!
