Pool PARTY! That’s the vibe we picked up on as we approached the University of Arizona. I can safely say we officially have tans! We arrived to Tucson on Saturday morning giving us a few extra days to educate ourselves about the University of Arizona. We walked around campus on Saturday afternoon and realized we needed to put on our bikinis to even halfway fit in with the local crowd. There were girls and guys prancing the streets in their swimsuits. The sounds of reggae could be heard for blocks.
As we approached Greek row we noticed the streets becoming more and more full. We couldn’t believe it? Was it always like this? Where was the party? We meet a group of alumni who informed us it was pool party weekend. Apparently all of the fraternities on campus build, yes build, pools in their back yards using hay, giant tarps and lots of sand bags? Genius.
“Oh my gosh! No, way ROXY!!” The girls on campus were so stoked to have us. We couldn’t get our exhibit set up fast enough. They were swarming the R.V. as soon as we pulled up to our location. We were on the most populated side of campus. Huge sprawling palm trees lined the sides of the street where our exhibit was centrally located. The buildings were very large and consumed with old stone and red brick. A giant clock tower overlooked our whole location, a perfect spot for our set up. Things went very smooth and no surprise here, the girls and some guys loved our tee shirts and the rad tote bags from Schick Quattro for Women.
The vibe on campus was a little different than the others. Much more chill and relaxed, unlike the ninety-degree temperature. Maybe it was all the pool parties the day before that took too much out of them.
Our day ended with a delicious treat for ourselves an Eegee, a Tucson original locals favorite. It’s a slushy but one thousand times better. It has real fruit mixed in and tastes like a dream after a hard days work in the sun.
We’re on the road again, and headed toward San Diego. We still are keeping our eyes out for the best video submission so please keep them coming!! We love to watch them! Keep it real.
Much Love,
Samantha and Carissa
