It's that time of year again. As someone who has never really been a big participant in Halloween celebrations, it's been quite a surprise to find out that costumes are a must at college. It's only a few days before Halloween and I still don't have a costume. Even worse, the fun begins on Thursday here at UVa. It seems the Wahoos take their candy and costumes pretty seriously. Fortunately I have (at least) three more years to catch on.
Aside from my costume fiasco, there are other, possibly more important happenings here on grounds. There is the annual Halloween on the Lawn event will be held Sunday, October 31 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. It's an opportunity for local kids to come and be entertained and get candy from the upperclassmen Lawnies. Cavs who don't live on the Lawn can also participate, by donating candy to the students living on the Lawn and Ranges. Halloween night will start off fun for area kids, who can go to the trick-or-treat festival at McIntire Amphitheatre, paint pumpkins, have their faces painted, eat s'mores, get hot chocolate, and more. Residents will be in costume and Lawn/Range rooms will be decorated. UVa will certainly be a lively place on Halloween.
