Scavenger Hunt

Team captains scramble to get back to their teams
at the start of the scavenger hunt.

“I felt like we did very well, but I kept thinking to myself ‘who
has all of these things, really?’ Come to find out, one team
(‘Thundercats Are Go’) almost did.”
-Braxton Denton

Team GOTD (‘Game Over, the Defeat’) examines

“I like that Springfest is able to get many students of
different classes together for a week of fun, competitive
events.”
-Tom Funfsinn

Chance Walker and Allen Jones compare their standings on the trivia bracket.

‘Men and Women in Tights’ share a laugh while judges read off
the answers to trivia questions.

Flag and Chant

Crowd favorite at the Flag and Chant, ‘Men and Women in Tights’ delivered an entertaining dance routine.

“Springfest is one of the few events put on by SAC that makes me feel like I’m at a real college.”
-Luke Wojdyla
