Loud music, soap bubbles, strobe lights and Alpha Epsilon Pi brothers packed the book- store parking lot during their Welcome Week Foam and Fun event Aug. 27.
According to junior manu- facturing engineering major and AEPi member Ben Mazor, the fraternity has hosted its foam party as a homecoming event for the past five years. This time, however, the Student Activities Office asked them to host it during Welcome Week.
Foam and Fun replaced last watered down paint while they danced to top 100 songs in the middle of the quad.
With the help of an Ideal Rentals sponsorship, AEPi was able to hand out T-shirts, towels and water bottles at the event. Mazor said the added giveaways and mini flyers helped with attendance.
The memorabilia came in a variety of colors from black to pink with the words “AEPi Foam and Fun.”
“[The foam party] was clean fun,” Mazor said. “Lots of soap in the face.”
