CAC Family Weekend

Parents flocking from far and wide will make their way to Norman, beginning Fri, for OU's annual Dad's Day and Family Weekend festivities.

"My favorite part of the weekend is the game watch party in Gaylord," sophomore Brenna Umino said. "My family didn't have tickets last year so it was a great alternative. Plus my little brothers enjoyed it because they passed out candy and T-shirts."

The viewing party is just one of the many activities put on by OU's Campus Activities Council (CAC) including a UOSA Tailgate, U-Sing performances, a family brunch and showings of the movie, G.I. Joe.

This year will also expand the participation of previous years by incorporating a new family-friendly event. A Family-A-Fair will be available for all OU students and their families Fri night. The carnival-like atmosphere will include games, activities like face-painting and palm reading, multiple raffles, and food for anyone with an OU student ID to enjoy.

"It's a great way to include your younger siblings in the family weekend fun," Umino said. " Family weekend really will have something for everyone in your family to enjoy."



FINAL PROJECT IDEA:
The expanding trend and use of the social networking site, TWITTER. Who uses it. Why? What for? How it came about? How it can help you further your career. OU's use of it. User feedback, etc.
