The question if Tennessee will see a white Christmas this year is up in the air-literally. But whether we'll be walking in a winter wonderland or barren grassland, Belmont Service Corps will do its part to spread holiday cheer at Belmont University with its first Christmas celebration: White Out. On Monday, Dec. 8 at 10 a.m. all students are invited to take a break from studying for finals to celebrate the season inside the Belmont Mansion with live acoustic Christmas music by Alex Klinkhammer and Cameron Hail, sweet treats and even some giving back-what the holiday season is all about. In honor of children benefited by the non-profit organization, Toys for Tots, each attendee of White Out is encouraged to bring at least one unwrapped toy that will be donated in order to ensure less fortunate children see their Christmas wishes come true.
The Next Big Sound is looking for students to be part of their street team. Check out this file to learn more about this opportunity.
