She confirmed that this year events would be happening at the college\u2019s satellite campuses in Mason and Centreville as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe will have a multitude of activities to engage students that week to not only help them get to know people and find that sense of belonging but to also have fun throughout that process,\u201d Bingle said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Events scheduled at the downtown campus include the \u201cArcade Affair: Game Room Grand Opening\u201d in Building 8 on Aug. 26, \u201cLet\u2019s Talk about Student Clubs &amp; Orgs\u201d in the Library Loggia on Aug. 27, the classic \u201cWelcome Week Tie Dye Party\u201d on Aug. 28, before things are wrapped up at the \u201cTartan Lawn Party\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think the Tie Dye Party is going to be really cool. Students will be able to make a tie dye item of their choice and hang out with puppies at a dedicated puppy tent provided by the Humane Society of Greater Dayton among other activities. Our big finale, the Tartan Lawn Party, is also going to be busy with free lunch, several inflatables, snow cones and so much more,\u201d Bingle added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"39956\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/campus-life\/2024\/08\/20\/sinclair-preps-for-massive-welcome-week\/attachment\/img_9481-1152x1536-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1152,1536\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_9481-1152&amp;#215;1536-2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2-225x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2-768x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39956\" style=\"width:456px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.sinclairclarion.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_9481-1152x1536-2.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Puppy&#8217;s will be present at this year&#8217;s Tie Dye Party.
