OCALA, FL – Students stopped by the Patriot’s Cafe on the College of Central Florida’s Ocala Campus from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday for Holiday Karaoke & Cocoa, a festive event hosted by the Student Activities Board.

The cafe featured a make-your-own hot cocoa bar – stocked with colored marshmallows, chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, candy canes and holiday-decorated snacks – that allowed students to grab custom cocoa creations between classes. Holiday karaoke ran throughout the event, with students singing classics and seasonal favorites as others watched and supported.

From the colorful marshmallows to the bursts of karaoke, the event brought a sprinkle of holiday spirit to the lunch hour, offering students a cheerful pause in their day.
