Students, staff and faculty can bring their family’s to the Huston Huffman Fitness Center Friday night for a night of Thanksgiving-themed crafts and dancing.
OU Fitness and Recreation, the Graduate College and Graduate Student Life will join together to host “Shake Your Turkey Feathers,” a family-friendly dance, according to the OU Fitness and Recreation web page.
The event will take place from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. in the Huff’s Studio A, according to the web page.
The event will be a fun way for students and faculty members with children to dance, eat and meet other families, said Heather Kirkes, Fitness and Recreation outreach coordinator.
There will be music for dancing, food and Thanksgiving crafts for kids to create and take home with them, said Kirkes.
Shake Your Turkey Feathers is not the first event that Fitness and Recreation, the Graduate College and Graduate Student Life have put on together. They have also offered “Shamrock the Night Away,” and “A Family Halloween Event,” which have both been family-friendly, Kirkes said.
“We want to offer more programs for students with families so they can be more involved on campus and meet other families like themselves,” Kirkes said.
The event is free and open to all students, faculty, staff and their families, according to the web page.
