Laidlaw College just finished their fifteenth trip to the Parachute Music Festival over the recent Auckland Anniversary Weekend. Parachute, which turned 20 this year, was held at Mystery Creek Event Centre in Hamilton.
Laidlaw staff and students braved the intense heat and rain over the weekend to talk to punters about study options at Laidlaw during the four-day festival. Visitors were invited to take part in a 25-question bible quiz for the chance to win one of three iPod Nanos. Congratulations to Ashley Yates, Beth Wong and Alex Gray, who left the festival with a brand new 8GB silver iPod Nano.
Dave Wells, James Harris, and Dr Mark Strom spoke at the Seminar Space. Dave and James spoke on Youth, Community and the Gospel and Mark spoke about Paul at Athens.
Laidlaw also introduced two new commercials which played at the main stage throughout the weekend.
The weekend served as an opportunity for us to catch-up with Alumni and Distance Learning Students as well.
