Old Man Weather attempted to rain out the Georgia Highlands College Spring Fling, scheduled to be held outside on the central campus April 9, but the Office of Student Life moved the “Beach-less Beach Party” inside the Lakeview Building and the event went on mostly as planned.

Among the festivities were huge, inflatable games, a rock wall, a volleyball tournament (originally intended to take place in the sand courts, but moved into the gym), free food and drinks, caricaturist Steve Gibson and music provided by Q-102. The OSL and the Student Government Association provided all this to students and faculty/staff free of charge.

“It was great fun,” said Brianna Stone, psychology major. “I really enjoyed having a way to get a break from class.”
