The Natural Helpers Club will be holding a De-Stress Fest on June 1 at Jonathan Law to help students relax before final exams with a variety of activities.
The club will have many activities for students to participate in along with opportunities to relax. The activities will be available in Rooms 185, 187, and 193 in the freshmen wing. There is also basketball in the new gym along with the petting zoo in the student parking lot.
The festivities will start at 2:15 p.m. and will end at 3:30 p.m.
“There will be many different ‘rooms’ that students can check out,” advisor Ms. Smuniewski said. “Including the ‘cozy room’ with movies, games, and snacks, the “arts and crafts room” with friendship bracelet making and rock painting.”
This is just the start, though. There are even more activities for students to enjoy. These activities include an ice cream truck, a petting zoo, a karaoke room, and basketball in the gym.
“There will be a ‘karaoke room’ where students can sing their favorite songs,” Smuniewski said. “There will also be basketball and other games in the new gym, and an ice cream truck and petting zoo in the student parking lot.”
The De-Stress Fest was started as a way to help students come together and make new friends. The De-Stress Fest also gives students the opportunity to calm down before final exams.
“We thought that having a big event with a variety of fun activities would be something students would appreciate to help them ‘de-stress’ before final exams,” Smuniewski said.
The De-Stress Fest was also started to give students many different methods of relaxation that can fit their own personal preferences. The event will have an activity for everyone to do in order to relieve their stress.
“The variety of activities we have planned allows students to pick whichever method of relaxation best suits them,” Smuniewski said. “Whether it’s games, crafts, ice cream, animals, or all of the above, there’s something to help everyone unwind a bit as they begin to prepare for exams.”
