12 teams and only 1 winner. Being the 18th anniversary of Athenian day, the Fitness staff drew together several new events along with traditional events for the teams to participate in. This year the events were:

Not only testing physical ability Athenian Day also challenges team work and intelligence. Nursing Ninjas won Second place and the Mighty Morphing Athenians won Third place.

“It was an extremely fun event in which team work was the key.” – Zully Garcia
