Anchor Splash

So every year all the fraternities and sororities get together throughout multiple times in the year to throw these huge philanthropies that are charitable events to help raise money. Things like Anchor Splash, Putting on the Hits, Graffiti for Gehrig, and Octobreast are some of which help raise money for certain charities. Well the first philanthropy that was scheduled for fall semester was Anchor Splash which is Delta Gamma's, one of the sororities, big philanthropy of the semester which was for people who are less fortunate and have visual problems and the blind. Well me being pledge AKA phikeia, me and all my pledge brothers had to put on a routine along with all the other fraternities and sororities. Everyone's dance had to consist of a on-land routine and an in water synchronized swim. So we had 2 dance coaches who had been dancers for a while and started practice a week and half before. Our theme for the dance was the Twilight saga bologna and all Michael Jackson songs with some Deadmau5 to liven it up. It took me and my fellow phikeia 2 practices from 10PM-2AM to get the on land routine down. Then took us 4 practices from 10PM-2AM each time to get the synchronized swimming part down which included a lot of flips, flyers, and these cheer looking positions. On Sunday was the day of Anchor Splash so all the sororities and fraternities had to perform their routine in literally hundreds of people. My fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, got 3rd place in performance and 1st place overall which was a huge victory for us! After we were announced the winners all of our fraternity and coaches jumped in the water and went wild for a minute. Then I had to live down my glory and go to bed because I had stupid College Algebra in the morning.
