Vance lawn will be the location for this Friday’s SGA-sponsored pep rally.

“We have a lot of fun things planned for this year’s Pep Rally and hope everyone is prepared for the excitement,” said SGA Senator Shelby Dattilo, events committee co-chair.

On Thursday, club-created banners will be on display in Semesters from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. for judging by CCSU students. The banner competition gives clubs a chance to earn additional money added onto their base budgets. First place receives $500, second place receives $300 and third place receives $200. The winning banners will be on display at the pep rally.

Friday’s pep rally is in support of Saturday’s homecoming football game against Duquesne. The pep rally is planned to feature performing groups, the football team and coaches, inflatables on Vance lawn, caricature artists, balloon artists, spray painters and food such as cotton candy, popcorn and chocolate fountains.

The pep rally begins at 5 p.m.
