    BYUSA is sponsoring a dance Saturday night in commemoration of Worldwide Service Day, a special day set aside by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for giving service.

    Students are invited to attend after performing their service that day with their ward or stake.

    “We wanted to provide an activity for all the students who participate in the service activity,” said Craig Coleby, BYUSA’s campus activities executive director.

    The theme for the dance is “The Work is Done, Now Let’s Have Fun.”

    The Service Day Dance will be at the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum parking lot. The lot is located west of Deseret Towers.

    The dance will run from 8 p.m. to 11:30. BYUSA will also offer volleyball, food and Hook Me Up — a BYUSA version of a dating game.

    Students will need to sign up for the dating game at the beginning of the dance. Each game allows 60 to 70 people to participate. There are two games planned.

    BYUSA is planning on approximately 2,000 to 2,500 people in attendance.

    “This is the first big activity for summer term. Lots of movin’ and groovin’,” said Spencer Kelley, BYUSA’s campus activities vice president.

    Information about the dance was sent out to stakes, but not many people received the information. It was lost in the shuffle, Kelley said.

    The object of the activity is for the students to relax after working and to have some fun.

    “There is nothing like a lot of fun after a hard day’s work,” Kelley said.
