The Eruption

Every year, on the lovely morning of September 28th, the Marist JCL celebrates the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius-- with cake!

​

This annual production is reenacted by Latin students and is performed in the center of campus, where all can see. 

​

The Marist JCL made Mt. Vesuvius (tiered chocolate cake) erupt with lava (orange and red frosting), ash (powdered sugar), and boulders (crumbled Oreos and chocolate chips) in real-time during the performance. After the final bow, all students and faculty are welcome to have a piece of cake!
