I’ve heard of personalizing your wedding but…
My musician friend has had to learn fight songs for weddings but I never thought of getting one’s alma mater mascot to show up at the reception!
The Mighty Oaks
SUNY ESFs Robin Hood Oak
After a surge in athletics at the college, SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) has chosen a mascot to represent. An online poll of over 800 students had a choice of 6 mascots inclucding Rangers, Lumberjacks, Coyotes, Black Bears, and Night Owls and fittingly the unique name of Oak won to represent the large study of forestry at the school as well as a famous oak on campus–the robin hood oak. Legend has it that a teacher brought back an acorn from Sherwood Forest.
SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) has a long tradition of a woodsman’s team, competing since 1912 in timber sports but now has golf, club soccer, and cross-country this fall.
GO OAKS! We can hardly wait to see the mascot costume and this may take the heat off the Stanford Tree on the worst mascot lists!
