Features Vendor Fair is coming to town Page 6
By Emily Altman Staff Writer
The Student Government Association (SGA) is hosting the first ever street fair at Georgetown College on September 5, 2018 from 6-8pm located directly in front of the Georgetown sign. The City of Georgetown will be shutting down Memorial Drive for this event to take place on Wednesday evening. The street fair is a new version of the involvement fair put on by SGA every year, but this year it is being combined with a local vendor fair. For new students who are not familiar with the involvement fair this a time where all of the organi-
zations on campus are set up and have representatives present for you to ask questions and give you the chance to join their group. This is a great way for students to see all the Georgetown College has to offer including clubs, organizations, and service opportunities. Not only is this a great opportunity for new students, but it’s also great for old students to learn about new organizations or discover ones they didn’t know we have here at Georgetown. The street fair is a great place for students to learn more about groups on our campus, ask questions, and become more involved within the organizations. Even
if you already have joined organizations at Georgetown College come to the street fair and support the Georgetown community by visiting the booths of local Georgetown businesses. The fair should be a lot of fun for GC students of all ages. There will be a great atmosphere including music, food trucks, and giveaways from all of the local businesses and Georgetown College organizations. If you are a new student looking for ways to get involved on campus, then look no further than the street fair. Some of the groups that will be represented at the fair include fraternities, sororities, Yearbook, Honors Program,

Hi! My name is Sophie Hughes (aka Big Poppa Soph) and I am a junior from Henry County, Kentucky and an English and Communication & Media Studies double major. This is my second semester working for the Georgetonian and I absolutely love it. I have no idea of my plans for after graduation, but for now Features Editor sounds pretty good to me. Some things I am involved with on campus include Kappa Delta, Campus Outreach, JV Soccer and Basketball, ResLife, Admissions as a tour guide, and The Georgetonian (obvi-
ously). I have no other work experience including newspaper—in fact, I have spent my past two summers working drive-thru at McDonald’s in Sandusky, Ohio for Summer Project. I am not even entirely sure what the features section typically entails but let’s grow together, shall we? Since you all are probably dying to know, here are a few of my favorite things. I love all movies, but especially one’s including Julia Roberts, Patrick Swayze, dope soundtracks, musicals, and anything of the rom-com variety. Chocolate desserts of all kinds as well as M&M’s.
