Hey Pointers! Don’t forget, UWSP’s Fall Wellness Break will be taking place October 16-18. This means that no classes will be held on Friday, October 16, and no assignments are due over the course of the weekend. There will also be a bunch of wellness-centered activities happening on campus. Read this blog post to learn more about how you can spend your Fall Wellness Break!
Taking a walk through Schmeeckle Reserve
- This is a 280-acre conservatory area on campus that is open to the public. Explore five miles of trails and boardwalks. The trail is open from sunrise to sunset.
Visit Family and Friends
- Having a three-day weekend is a great opportunity to reconnect with family and friends!
Visit Feltz’s Dairy Store
- This break is right around Halloween, which would be a great time to visit Feltz’s Dairy Store. You can pick pumpkins to carve with family and friends, take a walk through the corn maze, and so much more! Visit their website for more details.
Hike up Rib Mountain
- With the nice fall weather happening, you could hike up Rib Mountain. This is a great way to see nature, and the leaves change during fall! The park is open year-round from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Check SPIN Events
- SPIN always has events happening during the semester. Check out their site and see what activities are planned during this Wellness Break.
Catch up on classes
- If you are behind in some classes, take this time to catch up. This time will allow you to not have to worry about any new class work.
Pointers, remember to use this wellness break as an opportunity to relax. Your mental health is important, and this is a perfect chance to relax and refresh during the fall semester.
Roll Dawgs!
