Innis is turning 62.
Let's eat pie, competitively!
In the spirit of friendly competition, and to commemorate our college’s birthday, students and staff are facing off in Innis’s second annual pie-eating contest. Your emcee, Dryden, from our Registrar’s Office, and your referee, Wing, IRC president, invite you to join in the fun as spectators and supporters.
A team of three staff members, led by returning champ and Residence Life Coordinator Dylon, will face off against a team of three students, led by ICSS Social Director Nate. All are competing for bragging rights, and to generate support for our college’s Renewal & Expansion. Meanwhile, the college community will cheer on their brave peers and colleagues, casually enjoy slices of pie, and enter into two raffles by supporting our renovation project.
How It Works
- The two teams will attempt to eat as much pie as possible within 10 minutes. The trio who eats the most, by weight, wins!
- All Innis students and staff are encouraged to cheer on the competitors, enjoy a non-competition slice of pie, and make CASH-ONLY donations toward their predicted winner.
- At the end of the contest, half of the proceeds will be donated to the College's Renewal & Expansion fund.
- The other half will be awarded to one lucky spectator by random draw. You get one raffle ticket for every $5 you donate.
- If you have supported the winning team, you will also be entered into a second draw for a special prize pack!
