Tailgate -- Corn on the cob...

As most, if not all, of you know, VT is playing the Nebraska Cornhuskers tomorrow at 3:30pm in Lane Stadium.

What you might not know is that CCVT is having a Tailgate starting at 1pm.

We are having grilled corn on the cob to foreshadow what the Hokies are going to do to the Cornhuskers on the field. Of course, we will also have grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, and sides like potato salad, etc. And it's all FREE!

You are invited! Feel free to bring some friends with you to hang out and enjoy a great tailgate before making the short walk on over to the stadium from our campus house. (It's only about 300 yards away!)

If you need directions to our campus house, probably the best way to get them is to type "413 West Clay St., Blacksburg, VA" into Google maps. You'll see that our campus house is only about a block away from most of the dorms on campus, over by the Washington Street tennis courts.

If you are walking from on campus, do this: When you are standing on Washington Street between O'Shaughnessy (O'Shag) Hall and Johnson Hall you are only one short block away. Cross to the other side of the street and take the sidewalk up the hill towards VT's Cranwell International Center. (You will see a sign for Cranwell on Washington St.) VT's Tennis Courts will be on your right. As you are walking up the hill veer to your left off of the sidewalk and walk up the grassy hill. (Veer left before you get to the chain link fence with all the vines growing on it. We are on the other side of that fence.) You will see the campus house facing you. It's a two story red brick house with a big front porch and a banner on the balcony railing that says "Christ's Church @ VT Campus Ministry" -- so you'll know you found the right place once you get here! It's really pretty simple, but feel free to call me if you have any trouble: 540-552-8292.

Don't forget: Tailgate at 1pm Saturday at CCVT's campus house -- 413 West Clay St.

Hope to see you there,
Steve
