Ballroom Dancing
Adam Seering
Sat Feb 3, 09pm-12:00am, Epsilon Theta

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event

Everyone looks stylish when they're dancing in a swishy skirt. (Especially guys!) Even if you've never danced a step in your life, our resident ballroom dancing aficionados will show you how to cha-cha, swing, tango, or at least fake it pretty well. We're not afraid
to break a few ballroom traditions or gender roles along the way. Swish!

The ET Van will pick up interested dancers at the turnaround behind the MIT Chapel at 7:00pm, and we'll be stopping by again at 10:00pm for any stragglers. Call us at x3-8888 or 617-734-9211 for a ride!

Boffer Weapon Construction
Adam Seering
Tue Jan 30, 01:30-06:00pm, Epsilon Theta

The boffer sword is the first-choice weapon in every MIT student's armory. Armed with a fine padded boffer, one can fend off even the most vigorous attacks of dart guns. So, come build your own! Learn to construct a boffer, and take one home with you.

There will, of course, be a boffer-testing session following boffer construction.

The ET Van will pick up prospective boffer-constructors at the turnaround behind the MIT Chapel at 1:15pm. Call us at x3-8888 or 617-734-9211 for a ride!
