Get ready to fuel your Lebanese spirit with RalLiban, an Independence Day-themed rally paper organized by the Office of Student Affairs (OSA) at Antonine University (UA)!
Inspired by the racing spirit of the Welcome Week’s “Fuel Your Power: Drive, Strive, Rise,” this interactive competition transforms the Hadat–Baabda Campus into a racing track where Lebanese culture, traditions, history, and entertainment take center stage.
With up to 15 teams of six participants competing across ten challenges, RalLiban is no ordinary race. Speed alone will not get you to the finish line. Creativity, teamwork, quick thinking, and a little Lebanese ingenuity are what will keep you moving!
What to Expect
Your journey begins with a twist: your car has run out of fuel! Luckily, the iconic Lebanese bosta is here to save the day.
Starting at Fr. Louis Rohban Hall, each team will receive a tote bag containing the rally storyline and a customized campus map designed as a racing track.
Equipped with your map, your team will navigate ten interactive stations inspired by Lebanon’s rich heritage and everyday life. From performing dabke and improvising zajal to testing your knowledge of Lebanese landmarks, music, cuisine, and history, each stop offers a new opportunity to collect UA Fuel Points.
You will have two hours to complete as many challenges as possible, answer bonus questions, and maximize your score. The team with the highest number of UA Fuel Points will be crowned the winner!
Prizes
The top three teams will receive exciting prizes:
- First place: Dinner for six at a Lebanese restaurant
- Second place: Karting tickets
- Third place: Coffee vouchers
