4/24/26 HFS Staff #Dining

Spring has sprung! The sun is (occasionally) out, and it's time to celebrate the season with food, games and good vibes. We're teaming up with ASUW to bring you the Spring Carnival on Wednesday, May 22, from 12–10 p.m., taking over Denny Field, Center Table and the exterior breezeway for a day you won't want to miss.  

Eat Like It's Fair Season 

We're going all out on the food this year. Here's what's on the menu: 

Global is serving up a smoky American BBQ-themed spread—the kind of food that tastes best eaten outside with friends. 

Head to Plate for the full fair experience: sink your teeth into a classic turkey leg, cool down with Flamin' Hot Cheetos® elote or satisfy your sweet tooth with a funnel cake.  

Seared is keeping it carnival-classic with corndogs and loaded chili cheese fries. No carnival is complete without them! 

And at Quench, treat yourself to specialty soft serve with all the toppings, or a refreshing strawberry lemonade. The perfect finish. 

Come hungry. Leave legendary.

Not quite full after all those delicious treats? Sign up for a messy, delicious showdown: the pie-eating contest! Compete for bragging rights, sweet prizes and ultimate pie glory.

There will be two heats at 4 p.m. & 6 p.m. with 20 slots available for each (plus a wait list). Each heat will have a winner!

Sign up, dig in and may the fastest pie eaters win!

Play, Win, Repeat

We've also got a full lineup of games and activities to keep the energy going all day:

• Corn hole 

• Ring toss 

• Pickleball 

• Basketball 

• Giant Jenga 

• Giant Tic Tac Toe 

And don't sleep on the Wind Machine Game—step inside for a shot at catching some cash with a chance to win a prize. 

Come Out and Celebrate 

Whether you're taking a study break, grabbing lunch with your crew or just soaking up the spring weather, the Spring Carnival is sure to be a fun time.
