Date Night Cruise Night

*these pictures are before the event







Haylee did a great job creating, organizing, and producing Date Night Cruise Night.  Unfortunately we had an extremely low attendance. We are still getting the response from students that they didn't know events were taking place on campus.  We are restricted on how we market and to what extent and this has proven difficult to reach students.

Haylee and I  sat down with our social media marketing student to come up with a plan for better reach.  We are going to do a live takeover on our Instagram for Date Night on March 13th. We are also doing a ticket give away, (tag two friends for a chance to win tickets). We met with University Relations to finalize our branding design, and pull up banners. 

We also have created a how to file on the google drive along with hard copies of pictures and instructions for each of the games, activities, and decorations for the different themes. 

Creating a new event during a pandemic has good points and bad points. The bad, we can't reach the students like we would like.  The good part, it is giving us time to fine tune the details of the event.

  MC Date Night These past few weeks we have learned some very important things for us to keep moving forward with MC Date Night. The first and main thing that was learned is how important it is to communicate effectively between departments. The ticket office has been selling tickets only to people on actual dates and turning away others if they were not on dates.   This was never the intention of the $6 date price.   It was the intention to encourage dating, but not to turn people away. The second thing that was learned this week is the importance of having everyone feel like they can attend the event.   While we want to keep the name MC Date Night, we are going to need to do a better job at marketing what MC Date Night includes, and it not just for people on dates, but an event where students can come and connect with each other as well as an inexpensive place to have a date night. The past date night on March 13 th we added a singles “lounge”.   Tab...

Was the Best Choice Made?   This week’s topic so interesting. A couple of things stood out in my mind.  The first was a study done by Waite and Gallagher (2000) stated that many marriages ended that could have turned out to be satisfying within five years if they would have continued to work through their problems. Have we made divorce too easy and too common? Another interesting stat is that the tolerance of divorce has increased since the 1950s. Is that because more and more of us are affected by divorce and we can see and understand the need for it? In our world today The Family A proclamation to the world written in 1995 and given at a worldwide general relief society meeting for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has more meaning then every before and will continue to be a standard which the world can look for guidance on keeping a strong marriage and family. “ We call upon responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere to promote those measures d...

  Focus on the marriage, not the wedding.   As someone who has been married for almost 33 years, I think I can rightfully say I have a pretty good idea what is important in a marriage, and it is not the wedding. I think that we were lucky not to have a ton of money to spend on the wedding.   My parents were pretty broke when Matt and I got married, as were Matt and I. Society has romanticized what a wedding should be like- -the beautiful expensive dress that brings everyone to tears when they see the bride in it for the first time. The hand-written personalized place cards for the exclusively catered meal for 300 of your very closest friends.   The wedding industry is a $53.4 BILLION industry, and that estimate was from 2013, eight years ago.   Just imagine what it is now, excluding the COVID year.   Something interesting that I read the other day, is that couples are actually putting off getting married during the pandemic because they can’t have the...
