Vote for Blugold Beginnings in Pepsi Refresh Project competition

UW-Eau Claire's Blugold Beginnings program recently entered the Pepsi Refresh Project competition and now is in the running to win a $50,000 cash prize. The 10 projects that receive the greatest number of votes through Nov. 30 will receive $50,000 to fund their proposals. The Blugold Beginnings proposal was created to fund next spring's Fifth-Grade Campus Tour Day event April 26-27, 2012, which will host 1,600 fifth-graders on campus to learn about college. Campus support and participation with voting could greatly assist Blugold Beginnings in its quest to fund the spring event. Visit the Blugold Beginnings Pepsi Refresh Project Web page to vote for the project. For more information, contact Lissa Martinez, Blugold Beginnings program coordinator, at
