Join Blue Devil Productions for our next Bonding event of the semester: The Purple Porcupine's Party at Perkins!
Check out our Ad Lib: It was a purple evening, and a group of -3 fungi gathered at Perkins for a goofy bonding event. The air was filled with dinosaur, and the backwards The Theory of Evolution twinkled in the night sky.
The group couldn’t help but running with excitement as they go their orders. Some opted for chicken, while others chose pizza with a side of pineapple. The porcupine were endless!
After they finished their meal, the group rolling their Red Bull and hurriedly draining into the night, cherishing the memories of their fun bonding event at Denny’s.
We will be meeting in front of the Involvement Center at 6 pm before driving over to Perkins as a group. If you are able, please bring a car to help drive members to the restaurant.
