 |
PLEASE NOTE: This event will only take place with the approval of the University of Toledo under strict guidelines to protect the health and safety of all participants.
Join us at 1 PM on Saturday, August 15 for our FREE ACT Welcome Cookout at the "Q" (between Parks and the Flatlands)! Hot dogs will be on the menu along with games and fun. Meet our students, our staff and find out what ACT is all about.
Free food, free fun, free fellowship - all free!
Where is the Q? The easiest way to find it is to meet us at the UT Student Union at 12:45 PM and everyone will walk over together.
Later on if you would like to see our campus house, let us know so we can take you on a personal tour!
HOW TO FIND THE ACT UT CAMPUS HOUSE:
If you are walking from campus start on the side of the student union with the bus loop. Begin walking, passing Memorial Field House, then go through Lot 13 which is in between the West Parking Garage and the Honors Academic Village. Once you pass the opening of the garage and get to a three way stop sign between Lot 13 and the street that leads to Rocket Hall, there is an Active Christians Today sign next to the path. The path will lead you to the backyard of the ACT house.
