Empowerment Tip #9: Empower yourself PHYSICALLY by having a safe Homecoming and Halloween weekend.

I’m going get straight to the point here. I know it’s an exiting weekend- I’m excited too! There’s a lot going on at SFA. There’s the bonfire, Homecoming Parade, Lumberjack Fun Run, FLW Fishing Festival and Tournament and of course the Football game against Texas State!


It’s easy to get wrapped up in the excitement and forget to think about your physical safety. Not thinking about safety first is an easily formed bad habit. So I wanted to remind you that life can change in an instant. If you’re going to be drinking, make sure you have a designated driver or call Driving Jacks at (936) 652-6600. It’s a small decision that can make a huge difference in your life and the lives of others.


If you’re looking for an alternative way to celebrate the holiday, Campus Rec is here to help.


Campus Rec’s Outdoor Pursuits program is hosting a Halloween event that will allow you to properly celebrate the holiday while getting your physical exercise in at the same time! It’s called Midnight Fright, and this year will be OP's third straight year to host it.


On Sunday, October 31, from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. OP invites you to wear your costume on the rock wall. The lights will be turned off and you will have only glow sticks to guide you. There will also be games, scary movies, food and costume contests!


I know you probably hear stuff like this all the time from your parents or other superiors. “Don’t drink and drive!” or something along those lines. But it’s time to stop tuning everyone out and get smart. It’s your life. Only you can control your own destiny. I don’t know about you, but I’d like to be around for a while!


Happy Homecoming and Halloween Lumberjacks! Be smart this weekend!
