Jesse Owens North Rec Center
11 a.m.–6 p.m.

Noon–5 p.m.
RPAC, Competition Pool
5:30–9 p.m.
Dump & Run is a huge yard sale of
reusable items, extending the life of
items and reducing the amount of
waste that goes straight into landfills.
The proceeds go to local charities
and student organizations that
volunteer to fundraise. Collection
of items begins in the spring, as
students are moving out of the
dorms. The items are sorted and
stored over the summer in a local
warehouse, and the sale is held
in the fall during Welcome Week,
where members from the campus
and Columbus community are
invited to participate. Tables will
be set up in Jesse Owens North to
display all the items, which will
likely include televisions, clothes,
shoes, athletic equipment, furniture,
dorm supplies and more. Dump &
Run provides goods to students,
faculty, and community members
to reuse at a very reasonable price.
This event exemplifies the mission
of Students for Recycling, which is
to reuse and repurpose old products
to reduce waste. All proceeds go
to student organizations and to
charities, and leftover items are
donated to charitable organizations
like the Salvation Army or Goodwill.
Attendees will see how highly
students value recycling and how
important it is to reduce waste.
Join the Catholic community for
prayer before Jesus in the Blessed
Sacrament! Drop in anytime between
noon and 5.
Grab a canoe, suit up with a team
of four, and try to stay afloat in the
RPAC’s McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion
during Intramural Battleship. Free to
