The philanthropy was a great success!! The event was a lot of fun and the girls met their fundraising goal. From the team website, they raised $1,115. After the tattoo, cookies and quesadilla sales, overall they managed to total $1,300 for the American Cancer Society. They also qualified as one of the top 25 fundraising teams at UC! Phi Sigma Rho was well represented and the girls are definitely proud of their accomplishments.

They set up camp in the commons next to Triangle where they sold glow in the dark tattoos and "drench the dork" water balloons. Lucy the Bearcat made an appearance as did a sky diver, and there were food and activities galore.

They constantly had girls walking laps around the commons all into the night and Saturday morning. At 10 pm, hundreds of luminarias were lit around the commons to remind us of the loved ones who have had to battle cancer. It's amazing how much we all are affected by the disease.

Overall, UC had 165 teams and raised about $106,000. I have a feeling Phi Sigma Rho will be participating in this event again next year. Thank you to all who donated! This was a wonderful event for a great cause.
