2003 Miracle Yearbook

SIBLING HEROES Two siblings are content glued to the screen, playing X-Box games in the SLC. When Li'l Sibs weekend came,Cedarville University was no exception to glorious family fun. The campus filled with carnival games,a showing of The Emperor's New Groove, and a significant population ofpeople less than 5 feet tall. Bunking three or four in some rooms,the already-full residence halls exploded as everyone ignored fire regulations for the weekend. Little brothers and sisters spilled secrets about older siblings and learned new bad habits that mothers and fathers spent weeks trying to eliminate. On February 7-8, Cedarville students, clad in white long-sleeved Li'l Sibs t- shirts, walked hand-in-hand with li'l guests from event to event. The lower level of the SSC boasted stations ofminiature golf,fish races,and caricature drawings. The upper level—where many ofthe big lil' sibs migrated—swarmed with people enjoying carnival games,video games,ice cream,and soda. The younger siblings also experienced eating at Chuck's with their older brothers or sisters. Tied onto wrists and anldes, brightly colored balloons floated cheerfully above the crowds. Some managed to escape and bounce gracefully against the high ceilings in the SSC. SGA tailor-made a special chapel for the li'l sibs who came to visit. They asked embarrassing questions and handed out dozens oft-shirts, and Jon Farrell and company led the chapel in a wonderful time of worship. On Saturday evening the crowd filtered to the Athletic Center, where it enjoyed Men's and Women's basketball games,and ofcourse the University's lively pep band. With all the activities, most managed to create special memories during the short weekend. "I enjoyed hanging out with my sister," freshman Molly Thayer commented. "I guess letting her experience what I experience daily was cool." SPRING SEMESTER 283
