Wilmington, NC – Tuesday's heavy rains washed out the Beach Blast and Beach Sweep planned for UNCW students.
The university says weather reports of afternoon storms were convincing enough to cancel the event, which was planned for Wrightsville Beach near Ocean Pier.
Instead, students were treated to a showing of the cult classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off at UNCW's new movie theater.
