The annual homecoming bonfire refused to go down without a fight. Despite the rain at the beginning of the week and the event being postponed to Oct. 20, the weather cleared up just in time. The bonfire had a soggy start and it took a few attempts to get things running, but as the flames grew, so did the crowd surrounding it. There was live music provided by Western’s pep band as well as a visit from Wolfie, our beloved mascot. The field near the Campus Public Safety office was filled with laughter and excitement, as a pie eating contest went underway causing everyone to come together. Wolfie even busted out a few popular dance moves. You could definitely feel the Western community spirit.
