Faculty/Staff Contest and other sundries

I think it's safe to say that people enjoyed the recent baby photo contest on Inside York web. There were certainly a lot of students and faculty/staff alike chuckling at the images and guessing on the chubby cheekers' identities. In case you missed break last Friday, Samantha Reed was the clear winner, outscoring all entries in both categories. On the student side, Karly Sherwood earned 2nd place, while Mr. Tom Murray topped the faculty/staff in correctly guessing the baby photos. Mrs. Reina Garrison earned Honorable Mention.

For dramatic tension, faculty members Brian Rogers, June Trachsel and Carol White tied in the child category and participated in a spontaneous chapel face-off. They had 3 minutes to identify 4 new photos with 200+ people watching. Hearing the "Jeopardy" theme ditty being sung by that many people may have undermined the serious competitiveness of the moment, as none of the 3 were able to guess all of the babies correctly. Ultimately, Mr. Rogers and Mrs. White tied with 2 answers each, sharing the prize and receiving the commendation of the crowd.

We won't be able to repeat this World Class event next year, but perhaps we can come up with something comparable. Suggestions, anyone?
