Make the lunch time a little less rushed. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln Dairy Store is teaming up with the University Program Council to host Fountain Frolics. Every Thursday, students and staff can have lunch at the fountain outside of the Nebraska Union and enjoy the music of various local groups. Ice cream from the Dairy Store will be available for sale with prepackaged 10 oz. cups of flavors like vanilla, chocolate, Bavarian Mint and Scarlet and Cream. Other flavors from the Dairy Store will be available by the scoop.

The event is open to the public. "It's a great way to escape the workday," said Kate Rosenbaum, marketing intern for the Dairy Store. The Dairy Store will be selling grilled Fairbury hot dogs, potato chips and a drink, but anybody can bring their own lunch or just sit down and enjoy the music, she said.

Where: Outside the north side of the Nebraska Union

When: From noon to 1 p.m. every Thursday in July.

Cost: Free. It costs $4 for a hot dog, chips and a drink.
