They gave it...

With a few bumps, everyone is STILL all smiles

...their all and then some! Yes, taking advantage of the good weather, the Gentlemen partook in a Steds tradition... Hall paintball! Playing a variety of paintball games, Stedsmen took aim against at their fellow Stedsmen in good fun. And with fifty-two residents present, there was no shortage of targets! Still, one target, a high value target, was missing- Fr. Ralph- due to a convenient illness. Next year... next year everyone will have their chance at him! On paint balling, Tom Roman, 2nd year AR and 3rd year law student, said, “Never have I seen such valor or such bravery! The Gentlemen rallied together and left their hearts out on the battlefield. While some were victorious in battle and others tasted the bitterness of defeat, all were winners in my book.”



Still, on seeing this picture, I am reminded of Winton Churchill who once said, "I hate paint balling, but I love the smell of paint."
