[Shacs] CS Party

[David Burris]

*Computer Science Party*

 

The Computer Science and SHACS would like to invite you to a "Welcome 
Back" party September Saturday October 14 at the Burris residence.  The 
fun will start at 5:00 P.M. with volleyball, croquet, table tennis and 
lawn darts.  Tables for dominoes, cards, and any other games you might 
wish to bring will be available.  The tables will be set up on the lawn 
and patio.  Former students are welcome.

 

Refreshments (food) will be served including soft drinks and pine 
floats.  You are welcome to contribute a favorite chip, dip, dessert, or 
other food item if desired.  Please do not feel obligated to bring 
anything other than your self and your good humor.  Bring your spouse or 
other interest (but please, not both at the same time).  We have about 
20 chairs.  If convenient, you may wish to bring a lawn chair.

 

Be warned, the volleyball court is professional grade, none of that 
silly sand stuff you saw on the Olympics.  If you dig for a shot, you 
will sport the resulting cuts, scrapes, and bruises for an extended 
period of time.  This course was designed for true Olympians.  Mr. Frey 
has injured himself on two occasions with the croquet mallets.  I do not 
believe the injuries to be associated with a lack of quality equipment.  
Draw your won conclusion.

 

I will have a can of Deep Woods Off available for as long as it lasts.  
Frankly, I do not have a mosquito problem.  Learn to bite back!  
Conversation is optional but suggested.  It was noted at the last party 
there is a desperate need for individuals who really know how to play 
forty two and moon.  There was also evidence of a lack of talented spade 
and hearts players!  There was however a notable excess of "trash talk," 
especially from Computer Services employees.  Must faculty be the only 
group to match talk with accomplishments?

 

A Christmas party is tentatively scheduled for December 9.  Details will 
be made available at a latter date.

 

If you get lost on the way, my home phone is 295-8062. 

 

Directions follow:  Take FM1374 West from Interstate 45 (headed out of 
town).  You will pass the Dairy Queen on the campus side of the 
interstate (driver side) (Ford company one block on passenger side - 
campus side of interstate) then a Diamond Shamrock gas station on the 
west (driver) side of the interstate coming from campus.  The Region VI 
Service Education Center will be on your right about ¼ mile on FM1374 
(large new addition just completed).  About a mile from the interstate 
you will pass the entrance to Spring Lake Estates on your left, followed 
by a single house, then a white wood church (all on the left).  The 
first street to the left after the church is Pine Shadows subdivision.  
After you enter the subdivision, the street makes an immediate turn to 
the right (an ell).  The first street to the left after the ell is Pine 
Grove Drive.  The party will be at the last house on the left at the 
bottom of the hill, 3357 Pine Grove Drive.
