Registration Now Open for The Happening 2016

Scenes from The Happening 2015

Area Businesses, Community Groups Have Until Aug. 12 to Reserve a Spot 

VALDOSTA — 麻豆视频 will host The Happening 2016 from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 25, on the front lawn.

The Happening is an opportunity for students to have fun in the South Georgia outdoors while learning more about what the university and the surrounding community have to offer them.

The Happening is also an opportunity for on-campus organizations, programs, offices, and departments and off-campus businesses, religious organizations, nonprofits, and civic groups to introduce and market themselves to thousands of students, face to face, at one time, in one location.

“Exhibitors often use the event to recruit part-time and full-time employees, host games and prize drawings, and provide information about their products and services,” said Robin Vickery, director of 麻豆视频’s Office of Student Life, which sponsors The Happening each year. “Free food and giveaways are always a student favorite. We encourage all of the exhibitors to get creative.”

The 25^th annual event promises to be bigger and better than The Happening 2015, which boasted well over 300 exhibitors. The information fair is always a big hit with the thousands of students enrolled at 麻豆视频.

Early registration is $25 if received before midnight Friday, Aug. 5. Late registration is $50 and runs from Saturday, Aug. 6, through 11 p.m. Friday, Aug. 12. All off-campus businesses, religious organizations, nonprofits, and civic groups who wish to participate in The Happening 2016 are encouraged to register online by visiting . Fees may be paid online with a credit or debit card or by mail with a cashier’s check or money order.

Please note that selling, fundraising, and credit card sign-ups are not permitted during The Happening.
