Amusement Park
This year, the council contracted with Bruce Smick Amusements, spending more than $4,000 for a "moonbounce," a water tag arena, a 26-foot climbing wall, a "gladiator joust," and a "bounce 'n box."
Last year's council failed to bring rides to Springfest after the Cambridge licensing board learned that the company the council had hired did not have proper insurance.
Robert M. Gee `02, CLC's other co-chair, blamed this mistake on poor planning.
"This time, we made sure we had a company with insurance," Gee said. "We also met with the administration and went to the city for licensing a week and a half early."
Students can also expect to see performances by a number of student groups-like the juggling club-and to enjoy food provided by various campus ethnic societies.
In addition, the "House Olympics" will feature a relay race, a tug of war and a pie-eating contest, among other activities.
