College of Forestry Roots Run 5K

Lace up for the Roots Run 5K!
Hosted by the College of Forestry Student Ambassadors

Shuttles provided between PFSC and Peavy Arboretum (come early for coffee, stay after for tacos and prizes)

The College of Forestry Student Ambassadors are Dam Proud to host the very first ROOTS RUN 5K — a fun run (or walk) open to everyone! Whether you sprint, jog, stroll or roll with us this Dam Proud Day, all registration fees go directly toward supporting COF students and programs.

Costumes are encouraged for the run, with prizes awarded for the best forestry-themed getups. After the run, join us on campus for $5 tacos (fees donated to COF Dam Proud Day funds), a spin of the prize wheel, and a well-earned celebration with fellow students, staff, faculty and friends.
