On Wednesday June 8th, Woodland’s Gay Straight Alliance hosted a stress relieving watermelon smash in the third floor courtyard by the cafeteria after school. Students could pay $2 to smash one watermelon or $1 to smash any other watermelons after that.

With finals quickly approaching, many students find themselves overwhelmed to meet deadlines, organize study material, and do well on their exams. GSA, hoping to raise money for the club while offering an opportunity for students to relieve stress, came up with the creative idea of the watermelon smash. Students grabbed their bats and goggles to release stress and frustrations on some watermelons while the proceeds went to GSA.
