The Residence Hall Association and National Residence Hall Honorary are hosting the annual Campus Carnival 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Campus Pavilion.

This event is free for all students.

The carnival will have karaoke, inflatables, cotton candy, Giant Jenga, a bag toss, a station where people can tie-dye shirts and Bingo. Students will compete in Bingo for multiple prizes.

Jacob Gulso, vice president of community engagement for the RHA said participating students can play multiple rounds of Bingo for prizes varying in value. There will even be a grand prize for the overall winner.

Students must fill out a waiver to play on any of the inflatables.

The location of the carnival will change to McAfee Gym if the weather is not suitable for outdoor activities Wednesday.

“We have had spring events in the past that have been quite unsuccessful, but this year we’re really trying to promote just an entertaining environment,” Neiv Hans said. Hans said she feels it is important to get the Eastern community together to celebrate the end of the school year.

The carnival is also to spread awareness about both organizations to promote more campus involvement.

Hans serves as the RHA vice president of administration and finance. She helped plan for the carnival by applying for multiple grants to fund the event. Both the RHA and the NRHH used their own money for the carnival as well.

Both Gulso and Hans are expecting around 200 people to show up. They hope more students spread the word about the carnival.

Hans said planning the event was a great way for RHA to intergrade more with NRHH.
