\subsection{Socials}
\subsubsection{Barn Dance: A Proud Midwestern Tradition}
Barn dances are a staple event at UIUC. Socialize in a unique environment with games of corn-hole and other midwestern fun. Various barns are used for dancing and mingling by many of the student organizations on UIUC campus, such as Farm Lake barn which hosts dozens of barn dances annually. Conference attendees will be encouraged to dress up in country-style attire or costume for this Thursday evening event. Like socials in the past student conferences, the barn may be used and a third party service can be hired to bring the square dance, swing dance, two step and cowboy boogie to the barn dance floor!

\subsubsection{77 Club at Memorial Stadium}
Memorial Stadium is not only home to the Fighting Illini football team, but also to exquisite event space overlooking Zuppke Field. The sixth level of Memorial Stadium is home of the magnificent 77 Club, which honors Illini great, the ``Galloping Ghost'' Red Grange. This 5,020 square foot space is located midfield and features an outdoor patio area overlooking the city of Champaign, for a combined total space of 9,740 square feet. This event will take place following dinner at I Hotel Conference Center, and is just a short and scenic walk away past the State Farm Center (formerly the historic Assembly Hall). Tables will be set up around a stage featuring live music and a dance floor and drinks will be served, along with hosting raffles with nuclear and Illinois trivia. This is the perfect event to incorporate a little bit of Illinois history with music, dancing, and socializing!

A Rec Room lockout gives ANS exclusive access to 14 bowling lanes, 12 billiard tables, and coin-operated arcade games following dinner at The Garden Hotel. This space can accompany up to 150 people, with extra overflow space with tables outside of the Rec Room for socializing, playing board games, or having a late night snack or coffee with professionals or students from other universities.

\subsubsection{Bars in the Downtown Champaign District}
The downtown Champaign area on the north-east block of University Ave. and Neil St. offers a selection of casual, approachable, and fun bars for 21+ guests of Illinois who wish to spend the night out rather than go Ice Skating at the Ice Arena. Reservations will be made in advance and several bars can accompany up to 100 patrons or more in the area. A couple of bars that the conference planning committee recommends are Guido's Bar and Grill (private lower level space that seats up to 100 with a capacity of 230), and Barrelhouse 34 (has a cozy rooftop lounge if weather permits). Conveniently, these bars are just a couple of blocks from each other with several more in between. Transportation will be available to get people to and from the downtown Champaign area to the Illini Union.

%\subsubsection{Pour Bros. Taproom in Downtown Champaign}
%Welcome to Illinois' first pour-your-own taprooms. Pour Bros. Taproom is located in the heart of the historic downtown Champaign area and features 28 pour-your-own taps: beers, ciders, meads and wine\ldots all poured by you, one ounce at a time. Socialize over the vintage games Pour Bros has to offer: skeeball, bubble hockey, steel tip darts, DAGZ and more!

\subsubsection{Under 21 Social: University of Illinois Ice Arena}
For students under the drinking age that cannot attend the Champaign Bars social event, the University of Illinois Ice Arena is another option that is only a brief walking distance from the Union. It was built in 1931 and offers a unique option for skating get-togethers from broomball and hockey to group skating parties. The Ice Arena is a 55,000 square foot facility and is the only one in Champaign-Urbana. The dimensions of the rink are 192' by 115' with a 1,200 seat arena surrounding. There are four public locker rooms, four party areas and two Zambonis in the facility. The Center Ice Cafe offers hot chocolate, coffee, smoothies, fountain drinks, and more to quench your thirst. Snacks and concession items are also available.

\subsubsection{Alternative Options}
Listed above are just a few of the many ideas for socials we've had. Here are some alternative social options that we can explore when we have more information.
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{Cocktail Hour at Krannert Center for the Performing Arts}\\
Krannert is UIUC's world famous performance center with a beautiful lobby area capable of holding up to 2000 people. They have a cocktail bar on site as well as a stage in the lobby.

\item \textbf{The Illini Bar-nana Crawl}\\
ANS-UIUC hosts an annual Bar-nana Crawl that combines social and public outreach aspects. This fun and hilarious (21+) social event includes a public outreach spin. Everyone will don a marvelous banana-suit costume and enjoy the great nightlife of downtown champaign. Discussing radiation dosage in terms of Banana Equivalent Dose (BED) is a popular way to demystify the risks of radiation. Banana suits would be included in the registration gift bag and potentially sponsored by an interested company.
