Fall Break has arrived – and it is finally starting to feel<\/em> like fall. You have survived midterms and are halfway through the semester. If you have opted to stay in Oxford this Fall Break, we’ve got you covered! We have crafted a list of ways you can discover our wonderful town!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Go Bowling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Did you know Oxford had a bowling alley? Gather a group of friends and get your competition on at Oxford Lanes<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

2. Enjoy Nature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Try Oxford’s new recreational trail at Leonard Howell Park. Whether you walk, jog, or bike this 2.25 mile trail, just go outside and be active! If you don’t have a car on-campus, not to worry, you can still hike around campus<\/a> on a few of our trails.<\/p>\n\n\n

3. Try a New Restaurant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are so many delicious places to eat in Uptown, try going to some place new this weekend! Our personal favorites are smoothie bowls from Fridge & Pantry (Insta worthy!) and brunch from Steinkellers. The best part? They’re all a short walking distance from your residence-hall.<\/p>\n\n\n

4. Throw a Movie Night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pop popcorn,<\/a> throw on some fuzzy socks, and settle in for a long night of movies. The residence-halls won’t be as busy as usual, so this is the PERFECT time to take advantage of the TV in your common area!<\/p>\n\n\n

5. Let Loose! To the Sound of Music or Paint<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking to use your artsy skills this weekend, visit You’re Fired and choose from a variety of differnt items to paint. Afterwards, on Friday, you can sing to your favorite tunes at Books and Brew’s Open Mic Night (8pm).<\/p>\n\n\n

6. Farmers Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wake up early and visit Oxford’s Farmers Market in Uptown Park on Saturday from 8am-noon. If you’re up early enough, you may even catch a beautiful sunrise for your Snapchat story. There will also be tons of photo worthy flowers, fresh produce, and much more!<\/p>\n\n\n
