Casino games, free food and more mean that it must be time for Spring Fling.

The annual Georgia Highlands College spring festival is coming up on April 4 and 5. It will be held on the Cartersville campus April 4 and on the Floyd campus April 5. The event will be at 11 a.m.-1:30 p.m. for both campuses.

The theme for this year�s Spring Fling will be Las Vegas. The theme will go hand-in-hand with the slogan, �We BET you have a good time!�

In past Spring Flings, several student clubs and organizations have sponsored booths and tables containing games and food for the students of GHC. This year will be no different. However, the list of clubs that will be sponsoring tables has yet to be finalized.

The main performer for this year�s Fling will be Wayne Hoffman. Hoffman is a mentalist and an illusionist. �He is definitely a �Vegas-style performer,�� said John Spranza, director of student life. Hoffman�s show will begin at noon at both the Floyd and Cartersville campuses.

Along with student-sponsored tables and a special performer, there will be a variety of casino games throughout the event.

All students will be able to play and make bets with fake money. There will also be a free lunch available to all students throughout the day.

The event for both campuses will be held outside near the student centers, unless there are poor weather conditions. In case of bad weather, Spring Fling will be moved into the Lakeview Auditorium for Floyd and into the student center under the library for Cartersville.

There are still several things to be decided upon for this year�s Spring Fling.

Spranza says students may keep a look out for postings about this upcoming event or contact the Offices of Student Life at both Floyd and Cartersville campuses for further information.
