Fall Family Halloween Party

5pm-8pm Friday, October 28th, 2016

UMD graduate and undergraduate students with children were cordially invited to the annual Family Halloween Party for UMD Students with Children. We were proud to present an evening of fall fun to enjoy pumpkin decorating, carnival games, face painting, crafts, make your own sundaes, and chances to win GradTerps gear! This was a FREE event for UMD students with children.
