Bobcats, we rocked our first week of Fall 2016 at Frostburg. Yesterday, we got a short respite on Labor Day, but now it's right back to the action. Two of our sororities, Alpha Sigma Alpha and Alpha Sigma Tau host recruitment events this week. So ladies, if you are interested in joining Greek Life, check out their events. On Wednesday, the Block Party invites students to join the festivities as it shuts down Main Street, Frostburg for an evening of fun. Pi Lambda Phi invites recruits to their Information Night on Thursday. Enjoy the weekend by catching a free SafeRide shuttle from Annapolis, Edgewood or Brady to Taste of the City where you can explore local businesses and register to win prizes. Late @ Lane kicks off with "Greatest Hits" at 10PM. There's no slowing down as we rocket our way into the second week of school.
Hope you had a great first week,

Saturday, September 10 from 1 to 5 PM
Frostburg's Main Street
The Student Government Association, FrostburgFirst, FSU Foundation and FSU SafeRide have partnered to offer Frostburg 101: A Taste of the City. This student-only event allows us Bobcats to discover Frostburg's downtown restaurants and shops in a new and unique way. A Taste of the City will take place on Saturday, September 10 from 1 to 5 PM on Frostburg's Main Street.
The event is perfect for students new to FSU and existing students to discover stores downtown they haven't visited before, supporting the Frostburg economy and strengthening the relationship between campus and community. Students can win prizes while discovering over 20 businesses participating in A Taste of the City.
Catch a free SafeRide Shuttle from Annapolis Hall, Edgewood Commons or Brady Health to the city-owned Parish Hall Parking Lot on First Street behind St. Michael Catholic Church from 12:45 to 3:45 PM. Even if you have a car, you'll want to stop at the parking lot behind St. Michael Catholic Church, 44 E. Main St., first to register for giveaways and to obtain your passport. (Again-bring your FSU ID, you will need this to register!) Show up early because the first 400 people to register receive swag: a FrostburgFirst drawstring bag to carry your purchases around town.

Zip Car Is Now on Campus
What is Zipcar? Zipcar is an on-demand car sharing service that gives students, faculty and staff access to wheels when they want them by the hour or by the day. Gas and insurance included.
How does it benefit students?
Zipcar saves students money. On average, members save about $600 per month compared to owning a car, which gives students and parents more money to put toward tuition, books and housing.
Members pay only for the time they use the vehicle, and have no responsibility for additional costs associated with car ownership, such as gas, insurance, parking, registration and maintenance.
How does Zipcar benefit the university and environment?
Zipcar reduces congestion and parking demand on campus. Studies have shown each Zipcar takes up to 15 personally owned cars off the road.
Zipcar reduces emissions. Studies have shown Zipcar members reduce their overall mileage by about 40 percent after joining, helping to reduce CO2 emissions.
|
Check out the new Zipcars at the Welcome Back Picnic on August 28th at FSU's Lower Quad or Frostburg's Annual Block Party on September 7th on Main Street, Frostburg!
Zipcars are parked in the Performing Arts Center Parking Lot.
