INA, Ill. (Sept. 4, 2015) - Details are being finalized for 海角视频芒鈧劉s second Warrior Fest on the Ina campus, set to return from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19. Similar to last year, the event will feature many different children芒鈧劉s activities, a car show, a flea market, scholarship opportunities, and much more.
Scholarship Opportunities
Outside of the events, one big highlight of the day will be the awarding of a Pathway to Success Scholarship from the RLC Foundation. The Pathway to Success Scholarship will be available for one student attending or volunteering at Warrior Fest - those volunteering with a club or organization will be entered into the drawing and those who attend the event will need to complete a scavenger hunt card by visiting various booths.
The $500 scholarship is the result of a successful fundraiser to renovate and upgrade the walkways and front fa脙搂ade of the Administration Building. The RLC Foundation matched every dollar raised to establish the scholarship for future students. The scholarship must be used for the spring 2016 semester.
For more information about the scholarships, contact the RLC Foundation at 618-437-5321, Ext. 1214 or foundation@rlc.edu.
Other Activities
RLC芒鈧劉s Culinary Arts and Radiology programs will offer food and beverages throughout the day. The Radiology Club will sell donuts and coffee for the early-morning attendees. The Culinary Arts students will take over for lunch, offering a twist to the typical festival cuisine.
Returning to the typical food menu this year are loaded nachos and pickled jalapenos, and bratwursts with peppers or sauerkraut, plus sides, beverages, and desserts. The student-created menu will add 芒鈧揃obs and Bowls:芒鈧� your choice of fried rice, white rice, coleslaw, or German potato salad combined with your choice of beef, chicken, vegetable, or fruit kababs. Teriyaki bowls and grilled chicken entr脙漏es will also be available.
芒鈧揥e know some attendees will be expecting the usual festival food, and we will have some of that, but this is also part of a class in the RLC Culinary Arts program, so we芒鈧劉re going to do a spin on the usual. The students want to show off a bit of their culinary skills,芒鈧� said Robert Wilson, Culinary Arts Lead Associate Professor. 芒鈧揙ne of those twists will be 芒鈧淏obs and Bowls芒鈧劉 where Warrior Fest attendees make their own combination.芒鈧�
