<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">The ISSS will host a bowling trip to Classic Lanes in Sulphur Springs, TX during Spring Break on March 16. We will also eat lunch at Big Smith’s BBQ and Catfish before we bowl. This will be a fun chance
to get out of Commerce for the day if students are still in town during Spring Break. Big Smith’s BBQ and Catfish is a traditional Texas restaurant that offers authentic Texas BBQ and Southern Fried Catfish. The cost of the trip is $5
</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">which includes transportation to the restaurant and bowling alley. The $<span style="color:#1F497D">5</span> fee is nonrefundable/nontransferable once a student has registered. Please
note we will not travel to any other locations for this trip.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">We will depart from the Chase ATM in front of the Halladay Building at 11:30 am and plan to arrive at Big Smith’s BBQ and Catfish by 12:00 pm (noon). You may review a campus
map at <a href="http://www.tamuc.edu/aboutus/thecampus/campusmap.pdf">http://www.tamuc.edu/aboutus/thecampus/campusmap.pdf</a>. We will leave the restaurant by 1:45 pm to arrive at the bowling alley by 2:00 pm. We will leave the bowling alley at 4: 00 pm
and arrive back in Commerce by 4:30 pm. Students must ride the bus back to Commerce.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">Students are responsible for their lunch and bowling. It will cost $4.00 per game to bowl, and shoes are included. For example, if a student bowls three games, he/she will
pay $12 dollars. Students will pay the bowling alley before we leave. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
