Students from Ecole St. Joseph School went to Ruth Inch Memorial Pool, the Fieldhouse and their own school鈥檚 field to play a wide variety of games on June 20.
They played musical chairs (but with hula hoops), soccer, dodgeball, sack races, spikeball and more.
Classes were divided into three groups and each took turns at the three locations.

Runners that make it across the field are safe until a new descriptor they match is called. Descriptors are called out until all the runners are standing on the same side of the field. Runners hit by a dodgeball join the throwers until there is one runner left standing who is then proclaimed the winner.

Young is seen very surprised as he jumps into the air to throw a wet sponge toward a student across from him. Simultaneously, a wet sponge is flying directly toward him and he has no way of dodging it because he is airborne. Fortunately for him, the sponge missed and landed on the ground nearby.

Originally, only Johnston and Pellissey were posing for the photograph but Salvador and Debogorski raced into the photo from behind and latched onto the other boys without them even flinching.
