For Texas State University students, Sewell Park is the go-to social hub in the spring and summer months. As final’s week approaches, students have already begun laying on bikini hill to work on their tans. Others float the river in tubes or kayak through the falls. No matter the preference, all students agree that Sewell is the best place to relax on a sunny day between classes. Grab your towels, throw on a bathing suit and bring your homework because a day at Sewell Park before the end of the semester is good for anything.
