It’s a Zombie Kind of World

The final battle of the Humans Vs. Zombies event took place on the Rangely campus last Friday, Dec. 3. Although the humans were successful in the final mission, there were no female survivors. The zombies triumphed. The game, which spanned four days last week and involved several different activities or missions, is basically “a giant game of tag with Nerf guns,”said organizer and network support analyst Ted Shonts. Around 50 students, faculty and staff played the game. Go online to www.spartantimes.org for more photos of the HVZ scavenger hunt. Photo by Ted Shonts
