The Student Leadership Development Office hosted a variety of events over the past academic year. However, as spring semester comes to an end, the SLD Office will present its final event until fall semester.
“It’s the last event that Student Leadership Development is doing for the year, and we usually like to send the year out with a big bang [and] we have a lot of fun,” Karen Williams, co-advisor of the SLD Office said.
Free food, music, games, dancing, karaoke, souvenir pictures, sand art and airbrush tattoos will be at the event. In addition to a photo booth, a photo backdrop and a dancing-head music video machine will be featured in the Spring Fling Block Party event, co-sponsored by the Student Government Association.
According to Williams, there will be 14 clubs, five departments and four outside vendors attending the Spring Fling Block Party in order to give students access to information.
She said the vendors attending include Petty Party Express, the Province, Dayton Department of Water, and Mary Kay and Avon, who will be giving away free samples.
During the event, up to two prize drawings will take place per hour, with a surprise drawing during the final hour, courtesy of the SLD Office.
“It’s going to be a lot of fun, a great opportunity to meet people within the campus, and network and let your hair down,” Student Body President Brandon Whitehorn said.
In addition, S3 Campaign donationations and sign-ups for those interested in running positions for SGA next year, as well as the newsletter will be available.
Although some clubs host and charge for bake sales, attending the Spring Fling Block Party is free.
The event will take place on April 24 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the basement of Building 8.
