Holiday Bonanza
The holiday season is essentially five days of ongoing festivities: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Chanukah, and New Year’s. These ongoing festivities can be challenging times for some trying to maintain moderate behavior when it comes to eating and drinking.
Every year the PEACHes (Peer Educators Advocating Campus Health) plan educational fun, and creative outreach program, the Holiday Bonanza, to help SFSU students survive the holiday season.
Some of the program past activities are:
- Tossing Game Students are asked to wear the alcohol goggles that simulate being under the influence and playing a tossing game. If the student tosses the ball into the can, he/she gets to answer a nutrition or alcohol question.
- Walk The Line Student are asked to wear the alcohol goggles and attempt to walk a straight white line, however, most students fail to do so because of the alcohol goggles.
- Jeopardy Game A take off on the TV show, students are asked questions about sexually transmitted infections, nutrition, and alcohol use.
- Wheel of Fortune Game The student spins the wheel and answers nutrition- and alcohol-related questions. Students who answer three questions correctly win prizes, such as pedometers, non-alcoholic drinks, bookmarks, t-shirts, food, etc.
