Spring Break: What Will You Be Doing?
One of the most talked about, anticipated, and Hollywood loved college experiences is nearly upon us – Spring Break. With one week to go, many students are already planning out what they’ll spend their free time doing.
One of the most common Spring Break activities that many students find themselves looking forward to is traveling. This is exactly what freshman Caroline Coleman has planned her week around. “I’m going down to Florida for the week,” said Coleman.
“My family is going to stay at my aunt’s house.” While Disney is not included in Coleman’s Florida itinerary, she is looking forward to visiting the beaches in the area.
Also traveling this vacation, juniors Angelique Lafond and Meara Cotton plan on spending their vacations participating in Alternative Spring Break (ASB). This program offers students a chance to spend their Spring Break making a difference with community service in different locations around America. Lafond will be spending her week in Connecticut, while Cotton will be traveling down to Fort Pierce, Florida with Habitat for Humanity. “We’ll be working in a state park,” said Lafond. “We’ll be picking up trash and fixing a playground.”
Habitat for Humanity will be working on similar projects in Florida. “We’re going to be finishing a house,” said Cotton. Both girls are looking forward to their respective trips, having participated in them during previous years. “It’s a lot of fun and a great experience,” said Lafond.
While some students are traveling, others plan on staying in the area. Freshman, Alex Lake, plans on taking a trip to Vertical Dreams in Manchester, New Hampshire during his vacation for a day of indoor rock climbing. “I’ve been before,” said Lake, “it’s a lot of fun.” While Lake has admitted to never going rock climbing outdoors, he did tell us about the 75-foot heights he has accomplished during previous trips to Vertical Dreams.
Also staying home for the vacation is freshman, Czari Cochran, who plans on bringing her boyfriend home to meet the family for the first time. “I’m not nervous,” said Cochran. “I mean I’m sure he is, but I’m not. He’s easy to get along with, you could introduce him to anyone.”
Between traveling out of state, visiting the next town over, or simply staying home for the week, vacation holds endless possibilities to fill the free time. Call some friends, flip a coin between the road or the couch, and enjoy the week off.
