BRAT FEST Tons of brats, thousands of brat buns, truckloads of keg beer, hundreds of people and one live band were mixed together at Bratfest, sponsored by Sigma Tau Gamma. Held on a cool, sunny Saturday in late April, Bratfest participants managed to stay warm by dancing to the music of the band, On the Air and by herding around the beer and brat tables.

RUGBY ARCTICFEST A warm weekend in February was the setting of the 1984 Rugby Arcticfest. Twenty teams from all over the midwest participated in this year's event, sponsored by the Stevens Point Rugby Football Club. Eau Claire won the tournament, while the Stevens Point team could do no better than a consolation bracket finish.

The competition in the 20-team field was rounded out with teams from Michigan, Illinois, and Minnesota. 18
