Orange After Dark (OAD) is in full swing with its calendar of fun-filled events spanning the entire spring semester—options include snow tubing, laser tag, open mic night and plenty more.
“We’re really excited about the OAD schedule this spring. We had such a great fall and can’t wait to bring students back to some favorite locations and introduce some new events to the line-up that we’re sure will be big hits,” says Courtney Jones, assistant director in the Office of Student Activities. “Cosmic Bowling was a great way to start off the semester—the event sold out in just five days and the students had a blast! Despite below-freezing temperatures outside, they spent the night dancing, eating and, of course, hitting a couple of strikes at the alley.”
One of the newest additions made by OAD is Grocery Bingo, a fast-paced Bingo game where students can come have fun and win bags of groceries that will work in both off-campus apartments as well as residence halls. The event is free with no tickets needed. This is one of many new options for students to choose from this semester.
In addition to the list of spring events found below, OAD will once again offer other continuous programming for students throughout the semester with Flashback Friday Movie Screening—titles include “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” “Dirty Dancing,” “Clueless” and more—on Friday evenings and Midnight Movie Screenings—titles include “Burnt,” “The Big Short,” “Concussion” and “Sisters,” among others—on Saturday evenings. Movies are shown in Gifford Auditorium on Saturdays at 11:30 p.m.
Through its ongoing collaboration with Recreation Services, OAD will also continue to host Late Night at the Gym. From 10 p.m. to 1 a.m, students are able to visit Archbold, Flanagan and Women’s Building Gyms, along with the Tennity Ice Pavilion, to take part in some exciting and different activities, including volleyball, Salsa and Merengue, yoga, ice-skating and indoor soccer. All activities are free and the complete schedule of activities can be found on the Late Night at the Gym Web page.
