We all love the warm weather… that’s why we came to SLU, right?! Over it. Anyways, the Spring has its oh so glorious days where all we want to do is lay out on the quad and soak up that sun we’ve been missing (for way too long). Here are great ways to have fun in the sun and “unleash the inner kid” we all know is in there somewhere.
Balloon Fights
Make it a sneak attack or gather up a bunch of friends to participate. Nothing screams childhood quite like pegging exploding water bombs at your friends! Whether it’s a sneak attack, or a full out war with a group of friends, nothing screams childhood fun like pegging exploding water bombs at your friends!
Blow Up Pool
Cool off and splash around in your Dollar Store kiddie pool. Sources tell me there are some waterspouts around campus that can fill up that seahorse covered inflatable.
Slip and Slide
Find a spot on campus that is not littered with glass or bottle caps and let loose on those warm Sunday afternoons!
Take a Bike Ride
Ride around Canton, explore the nature trails, or just ride from class to class. This is quite the opportunity to show off your skills of riding with no hands (we all know you practiced that relentlessly in your youth). P.S. The science library has bikes available for all students to rent!
Foursquare
Find a patch of blacktop and some sidewalk chalk and you’ve got yourself the arena to settle old childhood rivalries. GAME ON!
Wiffle Ball
Grab a dollar from your back pocket and head to the store to pick up your wiffle ball supplies. It’s not hard to get a group of friends rallied around the idea of having a quick 9 inning game on the quad!
Take advantage of these next few weeks and your time you have with all your friends! Spend as much time outside as possible and don’t be afraid to explore new (or old) games!
