Greek Life to Host Battle of the Bands

The Greek community invites all students and members of the public to attend Battle of the Bands and the All-American Cook-off.

Battle of the Bands, one of the major events of this year’s Greek Week, will take place at 6 p.m. March 27 in Red Barn Park. General admission for the event will be $2. For $5, food from the All-American Cook-off will be included. Tickets can be bought at the Greek Week publicity table in the Student Union Building March 23-27 or at the entrance to the event.
            
The proceeds from this event will be put towards the Greek Week philanthropies. This year, Greek Week is raising money for the Northeast Missouri Inclusion Project and the Greek Life Endowed Scholarship Fund. A majority of the funds raised during the week will benefit the NEMO Inclusion Project.
 
The NEMO Inclusion project strives to build a free, public playground filled with fun and accessible equipment where children, with or without disabilities, can play together. The playground will be built adjacent to the Adair County YMCA.

If there is inclement weather the event will be moved to 7:30 p.m. in Pershing Arena. For more information, visit the Greek Week page at greekweek.truman.edu or contact Kayla Loper, program advisor, at kloper@truman.edu or 660.785.4404.
