The South Dakota School of Mines & Technology’s Women in Science & Engineering and Alpha Omega Epsilon sorority will host the third annual STEMinist Star 3K Glow Fun Run/Walk on Friday, April 13th to raise money for Youth & Family Services Girls Inc of Rapid City.
Registration is now open for the event HERE. Runners and walkers can also register the day of the event from 6:30pm to 7:30pm, and glow-in-the-dark face painting and hot chocolate will be available during that time. The race begins at 7:30pm at Founders Park.
“Partnering with Girls Inc. is a natural fit for both WISE and Alpha Omega Epsilon to encourage young girls to develop strong leadership skills, a sense of sisterhood and to encourage the natural ability and interest in STEM fields.” said Lisa Carlson, Director of Student Success.
The event will include glow-in-the-dark face painting, glow sticks, prizes such as gift cards from Scheels and items from the Rocker Shop and T-Shirts for the first 100 registrants.
