The Spike or Victoria College Review, June 1908

College Picnic

College Picnic.

The Ladies' Hockey Club, having shown how such things should be done, the Students' Association had no hesitation in deciding to hold a College Picnic, on the 30th November, last year. Four drags and a funereal stage coach left the Government Buildings about ten o'clock, and only one of them broke down before Trentham was reached. After a meal had been prepared and disposed of and the men had performed the washing up in a manner highly satisfactory to themselves, rounders, cricket and other frivolities were indulged in. On the arrival of a later drag a sports meeting was carried out, with much attention to battle the fair admirers of their prowess prepared more appeasement for the appetite. The moonlight drive home was an excellent conclusion to an excellent day's outing.
