Event Navigation
Note: This event takes place in Boissevain, Manitoba.
Battle on the Border will occur on Sunday, September 16th, 2018 at the International Peace Gardens. Fifty students and staff from Brandon University travel to the International Peace Gardens to battle fifty Minot State University students and staff in an epic battle on the border of dodge ball. Students tour the gardens, play dodge ball, enjoy a BBQ meal and then return to campus. (Teams will be made up of 5 males and 5 females to each team. If you have a team mate request, please note that on your registration form.)
