The Campus Activities and Programming Board (CAP) coordinates numerous activities such as Spring Fling every year, which brings together Cabrini’s community for a day of fun and entertainment. The event will be held on Saturday, April 24 from 3 to 7 p.m. Unlike last year, where the event was held on the Commons and in front of Founder’s Hall, this year it’ll be in the back of the Mansion. The venue was changed because it allows for CAP Board to be able to expand Spring Fling and manage the logistics for the activities and programs they are bringing for this year.
Spring Fling is looking for some great local bands and the CAP Board is accepting demo tapes and contact information until March 23. The music will be more diverse this year as opposed to previous years. With the addition of local bands, Cabrini’s Dance Team will also be performing. Also, various student organizations that have requested tables for activities will contribute to the festivities. The Latinos Unidos will be having a block party afterwards and WYBF 89.1 The Burn will be having it’s Spring Fling kick-off dance on Friday, April 23, featuring a freestyle competition and the second annual Wing eating competition on April 24.
The theme of Spring Fling is still being decided on but will be announced soon. CAP Board is looking for T-shirt designs from the student body that will identify a creative theme. The CAP Board will also be bringing Fat Jack’s to sell food. The Dining Services will be doing a free meal exchange outside for dinner, too. Fat Jack’s are the caterers for the Philadelphia Phillies. There will be food such as soda, water, smoothies (if weather permits), cheese steaks and hot dogs. Glenn Gross, who is the owner of Fat Jack’s, will also be bringing Fried Oreos to Cabrini’s campus on Spring Fling.
There will also be inflatables, a giant slide, sumo wrestling and rock climbing this year at Spring Fling. This year’s event should be an exciting one and if you have any questions you can contact The Office of Student Activities at extension x8410.
