Trunk or Treat Thursday evening will be just the beginning of what promises to be a spooky good time at Lipscomb this Halloween.
Be on the lookout for the Lumination car!
SGA, Kappa Iota Theta and Residence Life are throwing the first of what is planned to be an annual trunk or treat event from 6-8 p.m. Thursday in the Allen Arena Circle.
Groups from around campus – including representatives of Lumination Network – will sponsor vehicles that will pass out candy to students who visit their trunks.
The event also will have food, a pumpkin patch and a couple of musical guests.
“SGA is constantly focusing on establishing and maintaining a community here on campus,” said Leah Raich a junior SGA senator. “What better way to do that than by a campus-wide trunk or treat?”
It’s not all goodies, though, as other parts of campus are involved in the Halloween festivities.
For example, the spinning classes offered in the SAC this week have taken on a spooky feel. The studio has been “haunted,” with black lights, Halloween music and a graveyard scene. Halloween classics such as Goosebumps and Halloween will be the backdrop as students ride the bikes.
On Sunday, all rides will be free as SeaMonsters 3D provides the setting.
“Our spinning instructors are excited to see all the current as well as new spinners experience these haunted rides,” said Emily Harris, director of campus recreation. “You won’t want to miss this exciting opportunity. Call 615-966-5860 to reserve your bike.”
Another nostalgic event is the airing of Hocus Pocus – a cherished Disney flick — in Fanning’s courtyard at 6 p.m. Sunday. This one ought to bring back some childhood memories.
