You don’t have to have the swift arms of Michael Phelps to join these Olympics or have the powerful legs of Usain Bolt to win.
The Second Annual HCC Olympics will take place March 3 in the Ybor campus courtyard from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m..
The games are created so that they’re not athletically challenging, giving anyone and everyone an opportunity to get involved. Events include a pie eating contest, dizzy bat race, Nerf archery, Putt-Putt, pong, ping-pong, beach ball volleyball, cup and saucer race, neck relay, and water balloon toss.
The Olympics are expected to be a "completely fun-filled event , last year's was incredible," said Ybor Business Instructor Katen Amin. He said that the best parts about last year's event were the 15 teams who competed and the large crowd who watched and cheered them on. This year, Amin wishes for a greater attendance and for everyone to get a chance to meet new people.
Students who are interested in competing are asked to create a team of no more than 10 people. All teammates do not have to play in every event. A team can register online by sending an email to kamin@hccfl.edu. Registration forms are also available throughout campus and can be returned to SGA or to room YPST 148. Registration deadline is Wednesday, Feb. 24.
