Event Details - holiday palooza

 The 4^th annual ‘Holiday Palooza’ event will be taking place in the M. Aikens DHALL on Monday,  Dec. 1^st from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM.  The event is sponsored by Christian Fellowship, Hayat, Hillel, Newman Club and The Office of Jewish Student Life & Interfaith Programs.  The PALOOZA serves as both a fund raiser and a celebration of the winter season. 

Students and staff  are able to ‘purchase a holiday token’  such as a candy cane, dreidel, hand henna, etc., and the profits of the purchase are donated to charity. This year the student clubs have chosen to give to the WAIT HOUSE in Glens Falls,  a program  Helping Homeless Youth in New York's Warren & Washington Counties to provide Emergency Shelter, Transitional Living, Aftercare and Permanent Housing Assistance Programs.  

 In exchange for your purchase, you are welcome to paint the DHALL atrium windows with different decorations and expressions of the season.  In the past we have had greetings expressed in over 10 different languages, and images ranging from Christmas Trees, Menorahs,&  Kwanza lights,  to Snoopy. The window paintings  are very beautiful and stay up through the end of the semester. ( We want to thank DHALL and Facilities for their assistance with this event.) 

The program culminates with Skidmore Accapella groups providing music from 6:00 to 7:00. 

Please come join us on Monday, December 1^st in the DHALL atrium to  donate a dollar and share goodwill & warm expressions during our cold winter season.  All are welcome.
