SGA brainstorms carnival-themed homecoming event

SGA senators are preparing for their sponsored homecoming event and spirit day.

Senators discussed possible items to give away, including face tattoos and eye black stickers, water bottles and metal key chains. A general vote was taken to decide which item was most popular.

SGA Adviser Laura Knotts said they will begin looking into prices for sunglasses. They would be aviator style with a hawk’s head, similar to a pair CAB gave away five years ago.

The SGA homecoming event’s theme will be a carnival with games. SGA President Adrian LeJeune suggested human board games as one of the attractions.

“It would be really cool to take a lot of normal games that everyone is familiar with and make them bigger, like ring toss. CAB did human bowling one year for Spring Fever and it was a big hit,” LeJeune said.

LeJeune said the more unique the carnival seemed, the more student interest would be garnered.

“Carnivals are supposed to be wacky and these ideas are all something fun and easy we can pull off,” LeJeune said.

Senators suggested hiring a DJ from local radio stations, as well as making a playlist themselves for the event.

“This is going to be a fun event. We want students to come. People will see it and be inclined to walk over, especially with music,” LeJeune said.

SGA’s homecoming event will be held Sept. 25.
