Student Leadership Association (SLA) wants to take Sinclair Community College on a “cruise” for spring fling.

Spring Fling is an annual event thrown by the SLA which includes various forms of entertainment, games and showcases different student clubs and organizations.

The event will be held on May 11 from 11 a.m.- 3 p.m. in the basement of Building 8.

This year’s theme for Spring Fling is a “Diamond Cruise” and SLA hopes to make people who attend feel like they are on a real cruise, according to SLA Marketing Assistant Kolita Hollins.

“Cruises are supposed to be fun and relaxing, so that’s the vibe we hope to give people who attend,” said Hollins.

Keeping with the cruise theme, there will be live music from the Groove Institute and free massages will be offered for anyone who would like them. There will also be free caricature portraits and a live DJ playing music for the crowd.

For the second year in a row, Sinclair’s bookstore will be holding a fashion show from 11:15-11:45 a.m. Only the first 18 students will be accepted, if you are interested contact Brooke Obringer at 512-0384.

The SLA is also looking for volunteers for spring fling. Volunteers will receive a “SLA diamond cruise” polo for the event and should be able to commit at least an hour from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m for the event. If you would like to help contact the SLA office at 512-2509 or stop by their office in Building 8 Room 025.

“We need people to help promote the event and help assist with setup, running tables, taking pictures, or any number of things that can help,” Hollins said.

The SLA hopes that people who come down can have a good time and enjoy the festivities.

“We want people who feel like they are on a vacation,” Hollins said.
