Thank you from the Spring Fling committee

Thousands of faculty, staff, graduate staff and retirees enjoyed Spring Fling on May 25. Attendees enjoyed food, games, a car show, golfing and the fitness walk, among other events.

More than 700 people enjoyed the fitness walk and 75 people enjoyed the golf outing at the Kampen and Ackerman-Allen golf courses. Several cars were entered in the car show, and some 80 employees won door prizes at Spring Fling. To see who won, click here.
