Six Events In Six Weeks At The Station Buffalo

The UB school year has just begun and we’re incredibly excited to have a new, amazing group of residents. To kick off a great year at The Station Buffalo, we planned a calendar jam-packed with a variety of residence life events to give our residents and their friends the opportunity to meet and mingle with their neighbors and to enjoy spending time in our luxury amenities.

Week 1 – Yogurt Bar

For our first resident event, we held a yogurt bar in our clubhouse. We had a pretty good turnout, especially when we include the fact that only about half of our residents, if that, were moved in at the time of our first event. There were about 35 residents in attendance, and we held it in our clubhouse area. We had about 6 different healthy toppings including fresh fruit, granola, and more. We also made sure to have a dairy free option!

Week 2 – Ice Cream Social

Week two, we held an ice cream social in our clubhouse. We had an even better turnout for this event, totaling 60 residents. Our team provided a large spread of everyone’s favorite flavors and topping for residents to mix up a delicious, cold creation. Residents were thanking us left and right for this fun way to meet and chat with their new neighbors.

Week 3 – Grocery Bingo

During our third week of resident events, we held grocery bingo in our clubhouse. We had a bunch of fun baskets the residents could win and the residents started to get very competitive with each other when they got more comfortable. It was a great way to socialize and residents loved the basket themes which included personal hygiene, cleanliness, and healthy snacks/meals. We had about 25 residents, which was a perfect amount because we almost ran out of bingo chips! All in all, it was a great event!

Week 4 – Pool Bash

For our fourth resident event, we held a pool bash in our pool area. The residents had a blast dancing, singing, eating, and just getting to know their fellow residents. We included pool floaties, a fun backdrop, galaxy cupcakes, and even free galaxy stress balls. We have only heard positive feedback from this event, and we even got a great video out of it from our amazing videographer. This event had over 250 residents in attendance!

Week 5 – First Day Of School Goodie Bags

Week five, we gave away first day of school goodie bags in our leasing office. Residents were so excited to get their little goodie bag and go off to class. We had over 50 residents show up to this event!

Week 6 – Blood Drive

Our very last week of our 6 in 6 events, we held a blood drive in our clubhouse. We are so happy that this event went well so that we could create a good relationship with Red Cross. They even emailed us after this event saying how proud they were for us to go over our goal of residents that donated! We had over 40 people donate, and it ended very well.

Our team has had such an amazing time getting to meet our residents over the past 6 weeks. Here at The Station Buffalo, we strive to create the best experience in UB
off campus housing and hosting a variety of awesome resident events is just one part of achieving that. Keep an eye out for more events to come, we’re looking forward to a great year!
