Welcome Back Week at Z West Apartments!

Classes at the University of Michigan are back in session and that means our residents have been making their way back to Ann Arbor, MI for another great semester here at Z West Apartments. While we hope everyone had an amazing holiday break, we were excited to help kick off 2022 classes the right way with a variety of residence life events!

On Monday, January 10th, we started off our Welcome Back Week by partnering up with a University of Michigan club, Student United Way, for a food drive to help those in our local community. All month long, students could bring non-perishable food down to our lobby to participate in this event.

Day two of Welcome Back Week, we held a Pizza Party in the lobby to help welcome back all of our residents (and their families) while they moved back in! At the event, residents were able to enjoy pizza from a local eatery, NYPD Pizza, and mingle with the Z West Apartments team and their fellow residents!

On our third day of Welcome Back Week, we help a Back-to-School Grab n’ Go event, where we provide delicious baked goods and other breakfast goodies for the students to start their first week back in class off right. Our residents were able to grab a quick bite to eat on their way to their first classes of the new semester. As they grabbed their treat, they were told about all the upcoming events we would be having throughout the week.

For day four, we held our Z West Apartments Scavenger Hunt! The Z West Apartments team hid 30 paper ‘Zs’ throughout the building and amenity spaces for students to find! Once a ‘Z’ was found, the residents could bring it to the office and exchange it for a prize. This is always a resident favorite! We had over 60 residents exploring every inch of our building looking for a Z!

On our very last day of Welcome Back Week, we held a ‘Paint and Sip’ event where we invited our residents to come down to the lobby to paint a canvas to get their creative juices flowing! While residents painted, we offered sparkling waters and lite snacks for them to enjoy. 30+ students were able to come down and enjoy this event and make a canvas to decorate their apartment.

It was an awesome week getting our residents geared up for a successful semester at the University of Michigan! We love having the opportunity to provide a best-in-class off-campus housing experience to our residents – Hosting a variety of engaging events is just one of the many ways we strive to accomplish that. From the whole team here at Z West Apartments, we wish everyone an amazing semester!
