Union Day 2022 Promises a Sweet Experience
Promo for Union Day 2022
The Arkansas Union will hold its annual Union Day celebration from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 28, at the Union Mall. Union Day is an opportunity for departments, offices and services located in the Union to share their information, make connections with students and learn about different tenants in the building. This year's Union Day is candy-themed, so visitors should expect a number of "sweet surprises" when they attend.
During Union Day, participants will have their choice of free food and activities, and an opportunity to win multiple prizes provided by the Arkansas Union, including a HomePod and multiple coolers filled with candy & candy-themed games. Students will also get a chance to network with various departments and organizations located in the Union and find opportunities to get involved on campus. During the event, a feedback table will be available for attendees to share their concerns and wishes regarding the Union and its services. DJ Derrick, Kona Ice and other vendors will help provide an entertaining and exciting experience for participants.
Previously, Union Day earned the Arkansas Union an award from the Association of College Unions International and received positive feedback from hundreds of students and staff. A candy theme, free food and exciting prizes will help make this year's Union Day a sweet treat for the campus.
