Around Town

Many places in Springfield to go eat and have fun with friends!

leave campus if you can.

EVENTS! There are so, so many events. From intramural games to play/watch your friends play, to intercultural concerts from bands around the globe, to playing music spontaneously under a tree or up on the joust patio, football, basketball, soccer, ultimate frisbee, hitting the gym, AB events, Senate events, floor events, Hall competitions, Spencebucks, going for a coffee run, going for an actual run at the canal behind the school, volunteering at any of the countless churches and organizations located in Springfield, there are almost too many things to do at any given time (whether you have a car or not). I would recommend visiting Eurasia Cafe, which is a coffee shop started by one of our Evangel graduates! Also, zip lining is not too far away, roller skating and roller blading are popular, as well as bowling, hiking, going paint balling, going out to eat, shopping, and barn swinging! Lots to do, just ask around or jump on The Hub, which every student has access to. It has the master calendar of EVERYTHING going on!

There are sports event going on all the time to attend, and the Activities Board is always putting together fun campus wide activities.

There are various clubs to join for fun although I am more interesting in lifting weights and playing music in the Fine Arts building.

Springfield is big and although you might have to do a little looking, there is plenty to do for fun! There are tons of shopping areas, including Battlefield Mall. Downtown is full of small shops and cafes to grab some tasty treats, a coffee, or look at some art. During the fall and spring make sure to check out a Springfield Cardinals baseball game!

Evangel is an expensive, private, Assemblies of God liberal arts institution located in the suburbs of Springfield, Missouri...so naturally Broadway shows and campus concerts are not entertainment options.. but that is OKAY. Creativity is your friend. Evangel has fun people, so there will never be a shortage of fun. Oftentimes, my friends and I go to the park, hang out in each other's rooms, go to the movies, go skating, go out to eat (midnight food runs are the bomb.com), go camping, mattress surf, volunteer, and lots of other things. At least this past year as a freshman, Evangel greatly resembles many elements of church camp.

Intramurals are offered, there are plenty of things to do on campus. Getting involved in different clubs that are offered.

There are a lot of places around the Evangel campus. They say that you can rent a movie from the library to watch(?). Can't really describe much because I was only there for a day.

movie nights are always happening, there are a lot of restaurants near by that people often go to. a lot of people hang out in the joust. I never find myself board, although it is nice to get off campus.
