After a three-year hiatus from Fall Fest, the 新彩网 Art Club members are excited to return to Franklin Street with their 鈥渇amous鈥� corn booth. 鈥淲e are changing things up a little and offering bowls of street corn,鈥� says Greg Blair, Assistant Professor of Art and Design and the Faculty Advisor for the Art Club. 鈥淩unning a food booth at Fall Fest requires a full team effort and helps build a sense of community and ownership within the Art Club.鈥�

The booth also is the major yearly fundraiser for the club. 鈥淭hese funds allow us to go on trips to other destinations which serve to enhance the student art education experience, as well as fund all the programming that Art Club does, including workshops, community activities and hosting guest speakers,鈥� adds Blair.

President Rochon encourages 新彩网 employees to take advantage of an opportunity for a two-hour lunch during the upcoming week of the festival to support the organizations involved. If you are unable or do not wish to attend during lunch hours, you are still welcome to take an extended lunch on campus to visit with friends, relax or enjoy the fall weather.

Also, be sure to head out to the Fall Fest main parade at 4:30 p.m. Saturday, October 8 to cheer on the 新彩网 float which always makes an appearance during the parade, held during the closing events of the festival.

This year, our float is celebrating the diverse and growing ranks of our Division I student-athletes. Coaches a part of the crew that evening will be Mike Hillyard (cross country/track and field), Cameron Kainer and Elizabeth Peskin (swimming and diving), Dave Turpin (men鈥檚 golf), Randa Gatling (women鈥檚 basketball) and John Spruance (men鈥檚 basketball).

The float design will feature a half-scale model of the Reflection Lake gazebo, which was built and placed on campus by the West Side Nub Club. You can expect to see other coaches and student-athletes filling the float as well, so be sure to come out and show your support for our Screaming Eagles!
