GRAND PRIZE:
Hendrix College
STRANGER THINGS
TRICK OR TREAT
As a hub of the campus community, Hendrix
Dining aims to create memorable experiences
that break up the monotony and enrich students'
experiences. recreating the television series
Stranger Things, a science fiction horror drama
set in the 1980s that centers around mysteries
and supernatural events, staff presented a
themed event on Halloween, decorating the
cafeteria with creatures and objects from various
seasons of the series, which was playful, exciting,
and engaging.
As guests entered the fictional upside-down
world of Hawkins, Indiana, they received
individual milk cartons filled with candy that
displayed photos of missing characters from the show.
Guests dined on uniquely inspired Stranger Things
food dishes and took photos around props with the
enthusiastic staff.
By creating interesting names to match characters'
favorite foods and reinventing entrees the families in
Stranger Things dined on, staff created a menu that
was creative and engaging. Creative entrees such as
Finger Lickin' Good Chicken & Waffles, Mind Flayer
Meatloaf, Pumpkin Patch risotto, Upside Down Burgers
and Demodog on a stick referenced scenes and quotes
from the series. While designing the menu, special
attention was given to providing choices for those with
special food preferences and allergies, including vegan,
vegetarian, gluten-free and nut-free options. Common
allergens were labeled, and the dietitian was available for
questions and guidance on food choices.
The resourceful staff used recycled materials, thrifted
décor, and strong imagination and creative skills to
create decorations that wowed guests. Conservative
and sustainable efforts were made to buy from a variety
of vendors, including secondhand shops for costumes
and props. Sustainable efforts included recycled
cardboard, sticks and paper that depicted a wide variety
of identifiable locations and objects from the show,
including the portal to the Upside Down.
