The blazing fire of 100 years of life shined bright on the candles of Victoria College’s Captain Vic as he celebrates his 100th birthday. Although the physical display of the burning candles was absent from the party, Captain Vic’s birthday kicked off Victoria College’s century celebration with a bang. The mascot’s birthday featured the hallmarks of any great celebration of life: a large bouncy castle, pinatas, party games, balloons, inflatable swords and a birthday cake fit for a pirate.

Captain Vic did not celebrate alone. Many Victoria College students and family members partook in the festivities, celebrating 100 years in the strongest fashion. UHV’S jaX the Jaguar and Outlaw Pass’ Rio J.
