Working Out

Hello Everyone! I know a lot of you out there are athletes and probably work out everyday. I am not one to go to the gym consistently. I would rather be outside playing a game with friends, hiking, kayaking, or fishing. I know that all of those activities are great, but I would feel better if I went to the gym more. Once I get to the gym, I don't mind it! The hard part is getting myself to actually go! Does anyone have some advice on how to get on a consistent gym schedule and not feel like it's a pain every time?

Kan Jam

Hello Everyone! This past Thursday, the P.E. department hosted the Play Day at Slippery Rock University. One of the popular activities was Kan Jam. I have seen people play this game, but I never got to learn it. As I was trying to learn the rules at Play Day, I found out that many people were telling me different scoring rules. I was wondering if anyone could clear that up for me. Is it an automatic win if you make the disc into the front slot? Is it 3 points for getting the disc into the can? Do you get a point for just hitting the can? Please help me out! Thanks.
