"Hoppy" Easter!

            The ladies of Alpha Delta Pi and the gentlemen of Phi Kappa Tau gathered for traditional Easter festivities before everyone headed home for the holiday. To begin the fun-filled evening, we started with the most popular of all Easter traditions: eye dying. With creative juices flowing and an abundant supply of resources, dozens of eggs were decorated. Using crayons, glitter, stickers, and more, these eggs were extremely festive and vibrant.

            After the successful eye-dying activities, everyone went outside where the fun continued. Groups of four were created for the next activity, which was very competitive. Members of each group had to walk across the lawn while balancing hard-boiled eggs on plastic spoons. If you egg dropped, then you were disqualified. As groups began to drop like flies, the competition became more challenging. Groups had to walk backwards, with their eyes closed, and with the spoon in their mouth! It was insane – but so much fun!

            The final activity of the evening required teams of two and one egg: The Ultimate Egg-Tossing Competition. The distance between partners started small and grew as the time passed and as eggs began dropping. And then, we had to throw the eggs with our left hand, which was definitely a challenge for almost everyone participating. It got even harder in the final rounds when they had to toss the egg over their shoulder. Although no one was injured, some people did get hit by flying eggs.
            This event was so fun and rewarding for both Alpha Delta Pi and Phi Kappa Tau. Members from each organization were able to make new friends and relive their childhood Easter traditions!
