Pool party to celebrate end of exams

Students celebrating the end of the semester can get an early taste of summer as the University of Windsor Students’ Alliance hosts a pool party at Adventure Bay, the city’s new indoor water park.

Josh Paglione, director of student life, says that some students may have felt out of place checking out the family-oriented facility, but the party Thursday, April 17, is just for them.

“We’ve booked the entire park all to ourselves for a private experience for students and their friends,” he says. “It’s an alternative way to have some fun and de-stress.”

A disc jockey will provide a soundtrack while partiers race down the slides, splash in the waves, ride the surf or float down the lazy river. It’s an all-ages, alcohol-free event. Free shuttle buses leave Vanier Circle from 8 to 10 p.m., returning at midnight.

Admission is $5, with all proceeds to help fund treatment for UWindsor nursing student Jessica Girard, who is battling colon cancer. Buy tickets in the UWSA offices on the second floor of the CAW Student Centre, or online at www.adventurebay.eventbrite.ca.
