Paint the Herd- back for another year [WITH 2011 PHOTOS & VIDEO]

Bright fluorescent lights, loud music, fog and everyone dancing while throwing paint at each other isn’t something that happens on a regular basis at Lipscomb.

But this Friday, Oct. 28, based on last year’s success, SGA is bringing back Paint the Herd.

According to SGA member Amy Estepp, one reason why the Paint the Herd tradition is continuing is because “we received amazing support from students last year and even greater responses after the party.”

“This year we are having a different DJ and will be expanding the cage to make the space a little larger than last year,” Estepp said, explaining a few changes to the event. Also, this year’s Paint the Herd will last one hour longer.

While Paint the Herd is considered a paint-rave, Estepp said the administration is supportive. “We have an amazing administration that supports students and their ideas,” she said, “so it made it an easy decision for us to continue this tradition.”

DJ Telemitry will be mixing the music for the night.

Last year, many students dressed for the night and wore white t-shirts and SGA handed out white paint suits. Students also brought goggles and wore clothing, including shoes, that they didn’t mind getting paint on. Come prepared to have paint splattered on you and be ready to splatter others.

Like last year, the event will take place in the lower level of the Arena West parking garage. Paint the Herd will start at 10 p.m. and end at 1:30 a.m.

Lipscomb students can attend for $3 with an ID. Non-students can attend also but for $10.
