Winter wonderland

To celebrate another fantastic year, the Union Administration will be hosting its annual winter celebration—formerly called Festivus.

To celebrate another fantastic year, the Union Administration will be hosting its annual winter celebration. The goal of our celebration is to thank the university community for the hard work all staff, students and faculty contribute to this incredible campus.

WINTER WONDERLAND
Thursday, Dec. 20, 2018 | 9-11 a.m.
Union Lobby

Previous years have highlighted the Festivus tradition, rooted in a 1997 “Seinfeld” episode, however, this year our theme is Winter Wonderland. The change in name comes after discussions to update the tradition and modernize for new generations. Many of the same Festivus traditions will be held and perhaps new traditions will arise.

For this celebration, we will have an incredible pianist, Clint Sudweeks, to get us into the celebration mood. The annual pickle contest will also be held; the glorious pickle ornament will be hidden and the first one to find it wins a pair of movie tickets. Additionally, no celebration would be complete without food. Dining Services will be providing an amazing array of goodies throughout the event. There will be a new selection of food options and an incredibly tasty menu.

We sincerely hope that everyone throughout our campus community will be able to join.
