Children’s Activities Planned for Spring

Jacksonville, AL – As the temperatures rise and springtime blossoms around Jacksonville State University, the campus is gearing up for a series of exciting events designed to welcome area children to the “Friendliest Campus in the South.” From Parents Night Out to Spring Break Camp and the much-anticipated Family Fun Day, JSU is set to provide a season of joy and laughter for the community’s youngest members.

On March 8 and April 12, the JSU Recreation Center will transform into a hub of excitement for Parents Night Out. From 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., children aged 5-12 are invited to partake in an evening of fun and games while their parents enjoy a well-deserved break. For a modest fee of $15, participants not only get to engage in various activities but also enjoy a delightful dinner. It’s a win-win for both parents and kids.

Looking ahead to Spring Break, the Recreation Center extends its hospitality with a week-long Spring Break Camp from March 18 to March 22. Aimed at children aged 5-12, the camp promises a blend of education and entertainment, ensuring that young minds stay active and engaged during the break. Parents can rest easy knowing their children are in a safe and enriching environment.

March 30 marks the date for Jacksonville State University’s fourth annual Family Fun Day, taking place from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. at the President’s House. The upcoming egg-stravaganza promises an array of activities, including an egg hunt, delectable food, and other exciting surprises. It’s an event where families can come together, create lasting memories, and revel in the joy of the season.

To make sure families don’t miss out on the fun, the university has simplified the registration process. By texting “FamFun” to 91999, parents can easily secure a spot for their little ones in the upcoming festivities. This convenient registration method reflects JSU’s commitment to providing a seamless and enjoyable experience for all participants.
