UNC Spring Fling
May 5, 2023 @ 11:30 am - 12:00 pm
Join the UNC Campus Recreation staff for the annual SPRING FLING. The Spring Fling is a 2.5 mile fun run or 1.25 mile walk open to all UNC-Chapel Hill faculty and staff. In previous years, over 300 participants have completed the course individually or as part of a departmental team. The event promotes physical activity, health and well-being and provides employees with the opportunity to contribute to the local food bank by making a canned food donation. In addition, pet donations will be given to the Orange County Animal Shelter. Free refreshments will be provided for participants after the event. This event is rain or shine!

Donations: Collections will be made for two charities this season: Non-perishable food items will be donated to a local food bank. Non-perishable pet items will be donated to the local animal shelters (food, old blankets, leashes, bowls, collars, etc. are all welcome). Those making a donation to either cause will be eligible for a special drawing.
