Will You Accept The Challenge?
Don’t miss out on the first-ever Nippert Stadium Steps Challenge!
In support of the student-led Proudly Pennies campaign, the University of Cincinnati’s Student Development Council is challenging UC students, alumni and friends to climb all 1,482 steps in
the lower bowl of UC’s Nippert Stadium this Saturday, May 21, from 11 a.m.-1 p.m.
With a $20 registration fee, you will receive an event t-shirt, food and drink. Lucy the live “Bearcat” from the Cincinnati Zoo will be in attendance, and the UC Bearcat mascot will also stop by to pose for pictures and cheer everyone on to the finish line!
Bring a friend and get a head-start on your summer workout regiment!
Pre-register online at
http://www.regonline.com/stadiumstepschallenge to reserve the proper t-shirt size. Walk-up registrations on the day of the event will also be accepted.
Among other student life and program enhancements made possible by Proudly Pennies, the campaign aims to build upon the charitable opportunities available to students.
Event proceeds specifically support Zoo-Mates, an innovative partnership among the UC Center for Community Engagement, Project Connect, and the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens. Through this mentorship program, 30 UC students are matched with Cincinnati Public Schools children who are experiencing homelessness.
Support to Zoo-mates through the Stadium Steps Challenge is made possible through UC's student-led Proudly Pennies campaign, which has a goal to raise one billion pennies--$10 million--to support the university’s Proudly Cincinnati campaign and help enhance UC student life and philanthropic opportunities like Zoo-Mates.
See you on the Nippert Stadium Steps!
