What is it? Good Ques- tion! Well, it’s another new

event — but it’s certainly the ONE. to miss.

It’s everyone’s chance to let out all our frustrations about university, and a get crazy.

There isa little bit of kid in us all!

We'll all be a part of and we'll all have an awesome time!

But don’t take our word for it! —Come see for your- self! Your curiousity must be unbearable.

Welcome to Frosh Week. On Tuesday, September 6, between 1:00 and 5:00 we are offering a great chance to pick up ‘lots of points and put our color team in the lead. There are five challeng- ing stations waiting for you. How would you like to play soccer with a six-foot push— ball?

Or perhaps you like tug— o—war...on a wet banana?!? Could you and your friend run 50 yards with a water balloon between your hips? We’re added. something new to the traditional sack race, which is the fourth event, but we are keeping the fifth a sur- prise.

Don’t wear restrictive clothing; shorts and your frosh shirt are great. See you at the Barn.

SHINERAMA '88

Shinerama is a_ very unique fundraising campaign put on by the Canadian Cys- tic Fibrosis Foundation. Ev- ery fall the incoming fresh- man from universities and colleges all across Canada go out and shine shoes with all the proceeds going to the CCEF for research. Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening hereditary disease affecting children and It attacks primarily the lungs and the digestive

-cystic fibrosis takes the lives of more Canadian chil- dren than any other inher-

-one in 20 Canadians carries the gene for cystic fibrosis. -there is no known cure of control for cystic fibrosis. -those living with CF must undergo rigor- ous treatment programs ev- eryday just to remain alive.

This year our campaign at UPEI is going to be the biggest and best yet. Every- hing gets started on Mon- day September 5 with the de- parture of a hot air balloon

Parents Reception

Another first and an event that we feel makes Ori- entation complete! It’s a re- ception for the parents of up- coming freshman.

A chance for them to get questions answered to that you never answer for them.

Parents are usually left in the dark about UPEI and university life in general.

We are going to tell them the truth (sort of) and give them a chance to see the campus for themselves. They’ll meet the faculty that will be educating you over the next 4 years.

Following the reception at 7:00pm will be a tour of the campus and a special tour of the Vet College.

displaying the “Shinerama” on its side. This will leave from MacAdam Field for its voyage over the city.

Shinerama Day is slated for Wednesday Sept 7, this is the day that the Frosh go out and shine shoes, they will be spread across the Island in Montague, Char- lottetown, and Summerside. Our ’88 campaign wraps up the following week with the Shinerama Pace held at the CDP. This is scheduled for Thursday Sept 15, and this year Chevy’s has generously agreed to take full sponsor- ship of the race.

As a little added incen- tive this year, the president of the Student Union, Dean MacMillan, and myself are offering a bit of a challenge to everyone participating in Shinerama. If $ 6000.00 is raised on Shinerama Day by students of UPEI, we will dye our hair to match our school colors — GREEN!

Walk Rally

Teams of four people are given routes to follow. There are several stations to check in at and zany activities to perform. The teams with the best times win and every- body who enters will receive points toward their week’s total.

So get out there and fa- miliarize yourself with your new home away from home; and have fun at the same time.
