Reminder: Spring Fling set for Wednesday

Spring Fling, the annual appreciation day for faculty, staff, graduate student staff and retirees, is set for 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday (May 22) on and around Memorial Mall.

In addition to outdoor activities on Memorial Mall, there will be events at Stewart Center. Spring Fling will offer many of the same activities as in years past, such as corn hole and ladder golf. A pet supply drive will be a new addition to the annual event.

Indoor activities at Stewart Center will include bingo, Zumba and yoga. The registration tables and finish line for the annual fitness walk will be at the west lobby in Stewart Center. 

Outdoor activities will include a bloodmobile, a vehicle show and music entertainment. CityBus again will be offering tours of campus.

Anyone who donates blood this year will be able to redeem a $10 digital gift card and will have a variety of places to choose from.

Because of the number of events taking place throughout the day, organizers are encouraging attendees to use caution while traveling near campus on the day of Spring Fling. 

A mailing previously sent out includes a staff appreciation card that employees must bring to Spring Fling to enter drawings for door prizes. Employees can look for the ticket barrel at the information table and deposit their entry card by 2 p.m. on May 22.

The golf outing on the Kampen and Ackerman-Allen courses is $30. This special rate includes 18 holes walking, with the option of riding at a discounted rate of $10. To reserve a tee time, call 494-3139, Ext. 1. Online reservations will not work for this event. Times are expected to fill up quickly and will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.

Tee times begin at 11:30 a.m. on May 22. Purdue staff IDs will be checked as players register at the respective clubhouse.
