Nearly 300 students from 91ԭ�� (GGC) recently traded textbooks for tokens at The Main Event, an evening packed with bowling, arcade games, pool and laser tag.

For Daniela Fuentes, a Norcross resident and first-year health sciences major who plans to pursue nursing, the night can be summed up in one word:

“Exhilarating!” she said. “It was an opportunity to go out and have fun with your friends.”

Fuentes especially enjoyed playing pool, a skill she sharpened in GGC’s game room last semester.
“I loved playing pool against my friends and other people there,” she said.

For Denzel Amoako-Agyeman, ’28, Lawrenceville resident and a management information systems major, The Main Event is a tradition.

“I look forward to this event every semester,” he said. “It’s really an amazing opportunity to enjoy a variety of games, free food, spending time with friends and getting to know my fellow schoolmates.”

His most memorable highlights?

“I scored a 104 in bowling, including two strikes!” he said. “I also enjoyed some friendly competition and winning a few pool games against my friends.”

Zachary Schneider, associate director of Wellness and Recreation for Programming at GGC, said The Main Event serves two purposes.

“It’s a way for us to offer something where students can have fun and socialize during the colder months,” he said. “It’s a good mix of students, including most of the women’s soccer team.”
