Centennial Celebration BASH

Things here at Rockhurst have been so crazy this past weekend as everyone gathered to officially celebrated Rockhurst's Centennial!  The anticipation has been growing for so long as Rockhurst staff prepared to throw the party of the century.  By the end of this past week, over 5,000 people were registered to be on campus for all of the big events.  On Friday, students, faculty, alumni and the like were invited to campus for the Centennial Bash during the men's and women's soccer games against UMSL.  The bash was held on a grassy field to the east of the soccer field where students set up fundraising tables and the university brought in inflatables, entertainment and food.  It was an absolutely beautiful day for the festivities and everyone looked like they were having a blast!

On Sunday night, some of my friends and I discovered the centennial cake just hanging out in the Fishbowl in Massman Hall, so of course we had to take a picture with it!  Happy Birthday Rockhurst!
