Lawrence’s annual Winter Carnival began Monday, Feb. 1 and will conclude on Sunday, Feb. 7 with a celebration of the Superbowl. The Student Organization for University Planning (SOUP) organized and adapted the week-long event to be socially-distanced and to conform to current COVID-19 guidelines on campus.
Earlier this week, SOUP hosted several socially-distanced events on campus, including a scavenger hunt, raffle, gingerbread house competition, snow-globe making event and grocery bag BINGO. Events were either held in large, open spaces or were grab-and-go. Despite the necessary changes to the Winter Carnival in the name of safety, SOUP aimed to make this year’s events more interactive than in previous years, as per students’ requests.
