Socials / Trips
Socials and trips are a great way to get to know other students interested in sustainability and network! Here are a few examples of activities BGI does currently or has done in the past.
HIKING
Every fall, BGI goes on a hiking trip to Turkey Run State Park. We've also done group hiking trips closer to campus at Happy Hollow Park, and are always looking for other chances to get outside and enjoy being in nature.
EXPLORATION ACRES CORN MAZE
Every fall, BGI takes a trip to the Exploration Acres corn maze to hang out in the maze and roast some s'mores!
ICE SKATING
Each January, BGI takes a trip to go ice skating at Riverside Skating Center. Check the calendar to see when our next trip will be!
CHICAGO TRIP
In Spring 2019, BGI took a trip to Chicago to drop off shoes collected on campus so they could be repurposed through the Nike Grind program. After donating the shoes, we spent the rest of the day exploring downtown Chicago!
Check out the video below Hannah Stringfellow produced with footage from the trip!
DOCUMENTARY AND GAME NIGHTS
BGI members also like to chill and de-stress together! Every semester, BGI hosts documentary, games, and movie nights to hang out and get to know other students who share similar interests.
