Wednesday, Feb. 27

2013 Royalympic Rumble, 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Douglas students and staff keen to reignite their passion for high school gym faceoffs will be taking over the the Pinetree Community Centre gym adjacent to the David Lam campus for an evening. Teams assembled to represent real and fictitious nations will duke it out in tournaments of capture the flag, crazy soccer, dodgeball, and volleyball. Volunteers are also required for the event and those looking to do so should visit http://www.douglife.ca/2013/volunteer-opportunities/royalympic-rumble-2. Shuttles are available for team members needing transportation from New Westminster to David Lam campus.

Anti-Bullying Day

Wear a pink shirt to raise awareness against bullying, or find the booths in the New Westminster concourse and David Lam atrium to get a new shirt for yourself. Shirts are in limited supply and will be distributed from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The first Anti-Bullying Day was first made official by the BC government in 2009.
Thursday, Feb. 28

Heart Breakers Campus Party, 7:30 p.m. to 12 p.m.

This monthā€™s pub night at the DSU building in New Westminster takes on a belated-Valentineā€™s theme. Students wearing white will be noted as taken, red for single, and black for those self-identified heartbreakers. Wear a combination of these three hues to add a shade of mystery to your outfit. Free food will be available, as well as $3 drinks. The event is for 19+ students only and two pieces of ID are required.
