Apples make some of fall’s favorite treats so there’s no surprise that the most popular station at the homecoming kickoff during campus life time was the Apple fest Station.
The line for these delicious treats went from the beginning of the zebra path all the way to the fountain. If you’ve ever gone to the SAC for breakfast, you can imagine the length of the line. At this booth, there were many apple items available for consumption – apple pie and apple cider, and one was able to create his or her own caramel apple from either chocolate or candy dip.
Students enjoyed the items at this station very much. When asked why they were drawn to this station of all the other ones in the Student Activities Center plaza, Kevin Sabella, a senior, said “I smelled the hot chocolate fudge and couldn’t resist.”
Brittany Beaumont, a freshman said, “The fact that they have so many different things to put on an apple makes people want to pay for it.”
Apples seemed to create a great level of spirit amongst students. Many shared laughs after taking a bite of the delicious apple dipped in chocolate, mainly because you can be compared to a five year old with chocolate smeared across your face.
This new addition to the Stony Brook Wolfstock tradition created a lot of homecoming spirit for the Stony Brook community.
