Fun had by all at the #IGC picnic today! #GoHokies

The inaugural winner of the coveted IGC Golden Boot is GCC faculty Dr. Quinn Thomas! He had the most #hokiepride at the IGC picnic today and will proudly host the boot until it’s passed on to next year’s recipient. 🏆 🎉

Presenting a new IGC tradition, the GOLDEN BOOT! Presented to the Hokiest of the IGC Hokies, the winner gets to take home this boot to display prominently! Before this trophy is passed on to the next Hokie, the winner will add a small decorative token of their own to the boot 🏆

Where were you if you weren’t at the IGC picnic/tailgate today? These IGCers want to know! #GoHokies #IGC
