On behalf of Purdue University and Purdue Orientation Programs, we invite and encourage you to participate in the 2022 B-Involved Fair at Boiler Gold Rush. Boiler Gold Rush is Purdue’s welcome week orientation program for all new undergraduate students and takes place the week before fall classes begin.
The B-Involved Fair will include Greater Lafayette businesses and organizations like yours as well as over 400 student organizations. The fair helps incoming students build their involvement experience at Purdue and with the Greater Lafayette community.
We are also excited to inform you that as a Greater Lafayette Commerce member, your cost to participate will be discounted:
- $50 per table, non-profit organizations
- $75 per table, for-profit members of Greater Lafayette Commerce
- $125 per table, for-profit non-members of Greater Lafayette Commerce
B-Involved Fair
Saturday, August 20, 2022
12:00pm – 3:00pm
Intramural Gold Fields at the Cordova Recreational Sports Center
The priority deadline was July 10, but you still have time to beat the final deadline of July 24.
Questions about the event should be directed to Craig Johnson, Director of Orientation Programs via email at john1803@purdue.edu.
Special note about Boiler Bridge Bash:
The B-Involved Fair is replacing what has traditionally been Boiler Bridge Bash (a Greater Lafayette Commerce powered event).
With the continual increase in enrollment, Purdue is eliminating off-campus events due to the logistics of transporting 10,000 students. We are sad to see this event change, but we are working with the city on other initiatives to bring the students across the bridge and introduce them to the surrounding community.
