Trail of the Torch

August 30, 2007

After performing at freshman convocation we had a good feeling about how we performed as a team, and this performance was going to test that. When we all got there, we walked into a really exciting and spirited gathering of people from all over campus that couldn’t wait for the ceremonies! While we were there we performed the routine we had practiced for the occasion to a completely different song then was intended, but we all picked it up just fine. Afterwards we danced another short impromptu routine while the Trail of the Torch staff was getting their technological equipment in order. When it started getting later into the night, we all started dancing little sidelines next to the crowd to keep them spirited and once Mario Cristobal had finished his speech it was time for the trail of the torch!!! The whole day was a trial and error for the rookies and even some veterans on how to act in crowds and in uniform so it was a very informative, and still fun, day!
