Activities

In addition to developing the applications, students enjoyed a variety of extra-curricular activities.

They relaxed after a long day dipping into the water at the Natatorium Complex at the university. The event was complemented with different styles of water competitions, single and in teams. In addition, there was also space for everyone to show their sports skills playing sociable games of Volleyball and Basketball.

One particular day, participants took pleasure in watching a friendly tennis game between Prof. Bienvenido Velez and Prof. Guztavo Gutierrez. But fun really started when the goofy games began. Running, jumping, and tagging, students enjoyed competing against each other. Finishing the day with a fun water balloon fight which everyone ended being soaked from top to bottom.

However, the most memorizing day would be when each of these young developers got to meet famous school mascot, Tarzan. That is when each high schooler felt they were one step closer of becoming a Colegial.
