* * * * * Halloween at Hagels 2009 * * * * *
surreal night ... hagels inside out ... vampires, ghosts, skeletons
even ET decided not to go home and came out to party
The GSC Black & White Halloween at Hagels was held Friday October 30. A first by the GSC - transforming Hagelbargers into a dance floor complete with a DJ. Two movies were screened outside for those not inclined to dance ... not many of those; most people (after a couple of beers served by a gorgeous black angel) got on the dance floor and played with the beat and rhythms of DJ Gerry Pacificar. Gerry kept us moving, jiving, spinning and hopping right up to midnight. And then the surreal magic of Halloween had to end and Hagels turned back into its staid and non-committal collection of tables and chairs - only now, they can have dreams of music, balloons, and strange creatures that dance divinely. And of what will happen at Hagels next year......
Chief Event Organizer for Halloween at Hagels was Heather Carr (Representative, School of Religion).
GREAT JOB HEATHER!

* * * * * FALL 2009 BBQ * * * * *
Thank you all who came. It was fun!
The GSC Fall 2009 BBQ was held Friday September 25th at Descombs Quad. The event began at 4 pm - hungry grad students were circling right on the dot at 4 pm! And they kept on coming all the way up to nearly 9 pm when we began to shut down. We served a ton of burgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs, macaroni salad, fruit, vegetables, chips and salsa and dessert. Very popular of course were the beer kegs which had a constant circle of devoted fans, and the wine and soda table. Great music by Gerry Pacificar ... a few of us (including Charlie the dog) found a makeshift dance floor and had a good time. Kudos to Beth Tracy (School of Religion Representative) who was the CEO (Chief Event Organizer) and her team!
Thanks to everyone who came - you made the event the success! Coming up next on October 9th - GSC Movie Night! Watch out for email annoucements coming your way soon.
