As the semester draws to a close and finals are covering schedules like snow on the sidewalks of State College, there’s little time to do anything other than pack and study.

For those who have finished their finals are too tired to care anymore, and are at least 21 years old, however, there’s an alternative way to spend the weekend.

State College’s annual Santa Crawl bar tour will fill the Borough’s streets with shades of red and white for the 15th time Saturday, December 14.

The Santa Crawl is a fundraiser for the Pat Boland Memorial Internship Fund, which provides grants to Bellisario College of Communications students interning at Pennsylvania outlets. Participants don Santa Claus-themed garb and bar hop throughout the night. This is the 15th year the event’s being held, and it’s raised $60,000 to date.

Crawlers can purchase a $20 wristband before the event that waives the cover charge at each participating bar. All of the funds raised by the event go toward the Boland Memorial Fund, which has been providing grants for the past six years.

The following bars will participate in the crawl:

• Sharkies
• Re//Bar
• Lion’s Den
• Primanti Bros
• Brewery
• Adam’s Apple at the Tavern
• Shandygaff
• Mad Mex
• Doggie’s Pub
• Jax
• Phyrst
• Local Whiskey
• Champs Downtown
• Pickle’s
• McLanahan’s
• Zeno’s
• Allen Street Grill
• Basement Nightspot
• BRGR
• Cafe 210
• Federal Taphouse
• Chrome

Participants can purchase their wristbands in advance at Pman, The Tavern, The Brewery, Doggie’s, Hotel State College, Cafe, Federal Taphouse, and Chrome. You can start the night off by attending a launch party at Pman, Cafe, Federal Taphouse, and Doggie’s. The crawl begins at these launch spots at 8 p.m., and the other participating bars join in at 9 p.m.

This isn’t the event to cautiously wade into, especially when it comes to matching the Santa look.

“Don’t be that guy that just shows up in a hat, jump in with both feet and embrace the event,” the crawl’s website reads.
