Florissant Valley students and staff enjoyed Spring Fest 2025 on May 6 with food, music, a range of carnival games, and a mechanical bull ride. Spring Fest, an annual tradition at STLCC across its four main campuses over multiple days, brings each campus community together to eat and have fun before finals week.
Activities were concentrated on a small patio near the Physical Education building, with food trucks parked on a nearby parking lot and a large inflatable slide at the library’s south quad. Among the booths and games, there was a high striker, a frisbee toss, a photo station, and horseshoes.
At one point, a crowd of students gathered to dance in front of a DJ booth as speakers blared music. Two people at a time sat down at a small station to be drawn as caricatures. Later, the mechanical bull ride, an ever-popular attraction, opened. Students gathered around and watched—many taking videos on their phones—as a line of festival goers, one by one, tried their hand at clinging to the bull while it spun and shook violently, inevitably being thrown off.
According to Campus Life Manager Dwyane Morgan, 275 attendees signed into Spring Fest at the Flo Valley campus this year, which he said cost a total of $13,830.81.
