Vendor Fair is coming to town

Vender fair is coming to town

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 organizations

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,

Equestrian Team, Campus Outreach, Hip- Hop team and many others. SGA President, Ben Martin, said “The street fair is a great way for new students to get plugged into various clubs around campus and not only meet new people, but to find their passions as well.” Steel City Pops will be at the street fair and the first 100 customers will receive a free popsicle, so you do not want to miss out on this night with your Georgetown family.

We encourage all the students to come out and have fun on campus by being a part of this new Georgetown tradition that is beginning this year.
