Fiji Olympics Begins Tonight

Fiji Olympics, a competition where sororities compete in a variety of sporting events, will be held tonight with the goal of raising money for the American Cancer Society.

“It’s so funny watching the girls attempt to play sports,” said Hudson Seidel, Phi Gamma Delta member. “We make our pledges dress up in embarrassing costumes for entertainment and some of us referee. There are a lot of ways for everyone to get involved and we appreciate the sororities donations and help in us raising money for the American Cancer Society”.

The Olympics will begin tonight at 6:00 p.m. and continue until Thursday, November 19, until one sorority is deemed the winner. Each sorority will participate in football, dodgeball, kickball, and an Olympic relay. This year the Olympics will be held at Lions Park north of Boyd Street on Flood Street due to current constriction of the Phi Gamma Delta house.

Next year the men of Phi Gamma Delta will be able to hold the annual fundraiser at their new house on the corner of Chautauqua Street and Elmwood Street.
