As the Outdoor Adventure Program was getting back into the swing of things, they hosted a Challenge Course Event in front of the Student Center on October 6. The main attraction was the jousting battles that took place, featuring some faculty members and the OAP leaders themselves. (Above photos by Sofia Flores)
Some of the all-star battles that kicked off the event was a faculty battle and OAP leaders Ellie and Cooper. (Above photos by Serriah Chavez)
But that wasn’t all! Other features of the event included a soft serve ice cream truck, a climbing wall, and an inflatable obstacle course. (Above photos by Serriah Chavez).
With all of that fun, it was a great event overall, but I would have to say that one of my personal highlights was the battle, or “celeb faculty grudge match” as one member in the crowd shouted, between Dave Law and Jason Taylor. Though it was clearly a rehearsed fight, with deliberate leaps and missed attacks, it was an entertaining match. Beforehand, I had a chat with Dave and he explained how he had been in a jousting duel before, back in Ranger Day 2000 or 2001 where he was against a basketball player, and unfortunately tore his ACL when he landed on the pedestal. So, the rehearsed match was valid, and it was still awesome that the two infamous faculty members put on a show for their students. The duel, after ending in a draw, resulted in a song sung from the two beloved Regis faculty. (Above photos by Serriah Chavez)
