Duckpin Bowling Event Saturday 1/25
Messina has rented out an entire local bowling alley for students to come and learn one of Baltimore's finest traditions, duckpin bowling! Come play and learn what makes this game a little different than regular bowling. Shoes will be provided at the bowling alley as well as all games you can play before they close. We will also be providing pizza and unlimited sodas. Bring your Messina classmates, roommates, friends or come by yourself and meet new friends!
A shuttle bus will pick-up students outside Boulder once at 7:45pm and another at 8:15pm. A bus will take students back to campus at 9:45pm and another at 10:15pm
Students need to register in advance as there is a 80 person capacity limit at the bowling alley. Students will sign-in on the Bridge when boarding the shuttle.
Community Engagement Fair 1/23
If you have students interested in community service or social justice opportunities around Baltimore, please tell them about the community engagement fair on 1/23 in McGuire Hall from 4pm - 6:30pm
