Spring Weekend will be held Friday and Saturday, April 11 and 12, on Lankford Mall (behind Lankford Student Union).

In keeping with this year's theme, "Old Hollywood: the Classics Never Fade," there will be Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Chaplin impersonators, and people can have their photo taken (free) on a red carpet, like movie stars. Saturday activities will run from noon to 5 p.m. Bands will include BASIC Gospel, Italia, Same Ol' Sound, Brian Simms, Alex Winton, Half Jefferson, Danielle Peck, Liam and Me, Cool Kidds, and Story of the Year.
