C-Rec Rumble!

Rumble News

A-Ten hut!  It’s time to reflect on this month’s obstacle course challenge.  A Few Good Men (and Women) came together to be all that they can be.

Military references aside, this month’s rumble event was unlike ANY event prior.  It was a physical challenge, and a difficult one at that.  However, teams came together and gave it their all despite early belief that the task was impossible.  Highlights from this month include a tire full of nasty water, the difficulty of overcoming the Mohawk walk’s bounciness and Mike Jensen’s cling to life atop a pole.  After all of the sweat and tears (mostly from laughter) were over, all of the members of the Campus Recreation staff who came out were able to see the true value in working together and come away from this event with a true feeling of accomplishment… and some hysterical memories!  Check out our fan page on Facebook to find out more about upcoming events and to look at pictures from this year’s events!

The C-Rec Rumble is a series of competitive events designed to engage the entire student staff in SIUE’s Campus Recreation department.  All of our student employees have been assigned to one of four teams all being led by a combination of Graduate Assistants and Student Supervisors.  The purpose of the C-Rec Rumble is not only to provide a set of fun activities for our student staff, but it also serves as a way to promote bonding amongst the entire staff as a whole.  This is the one type of event where employees from all of the different departments (Front Desk, Equipment Issue, Weight Room, Aerobics, Personal Trainers, Lifeguards, Rock Wall, Marketing, Tech. Support, Intramurals, Student Supervisors, and Graduate Assistants) can get a chance to know each other and get involved with each other in order to foster a team atmosphere.

At the end of the academic year, the team with the most overall points will receive a reward that is as-yet unnamed.  However, in the grand scheme of things we are all winners for being able to get to know each other better and to foster a friendly environment for all of our employees to share in.
