Spring break is only a couple of weeks away, and many Texas State students have
already made plans for their time away from the classroom. Lynn McCann has more
in this Bobcat Update.

It won't be long before students converge on places like South Padre Island or
perhaps one of the popular beaches in Florida. Historically, Mexico has been a
favorite destination for some, but it's riskier these days because of the drug
wars. Extra precautions have to be taken when traveling to foreign lands.

Reservations have to be made months in advance, and group-travel deals can
easily sell for more than 300-dollars.
SB – stand up…"to offer."
Also during spring break, Austin will be hosting South By Southwest. Those
attending will be able to experience unique music and innovative films. A few
events are free of charge, but most require a badge.

But you don't have to travel far at all to enjoy spring break. Sewell Park is a
perfect place to catch some sun, go swimming, snorkeling or canoeing. You can
play basketball or volleyball, and most days you can throw a Frisbee around
with Frisbee Dan.
For Bobcat Update, I'm Lynn McCann.
