WABI Covers Maine Day

WABI (Channel 5) reported on Maine Day, the University of Maine’s annual campuswide spring cleanup tradition. Throughout the day, UMaine community members completed service projects aimed at sprucing up campus, enjoyed a free barbecue, and competed for the oozeball — mud volleyball — championship. “We use the university grounds for everything, and we live here so it’s only fitting that we take at least one day to give back to the school that provides us living, food, etc.,” said junior Justin Duncan. Despite a few spring showers, students enjoyed the day’s events, according to the report. “It’s definitely all about the community, giving back to campus, spending time with good people, eating some good food, and being together and celebrating UMaine and oozeball. Go Black Bears,” said junior Jefferson Adams.
