Announcement: Businesses Wanted for Game Day Roundup!
My name is Jen Flowers and I am the Athletic Director at Southwest Minnesota State University in Marshall, MN. As we gear up for football season here on campus, we’re building a new initiative called Game Day Roundup. We’re hoping to build tons of excitement by utilizing inflatables, music, vendors, food trucks, and more!
How do you fit it?! Bring your business to the REC! Set up a station with a tent, giveaways, games, etc. Anything you want to do – we can likely do it! There is no cost to have a spot – we’d just ask that you bring with you everything you need (tables, tents, etc.) You can sell items, if you wish. Really anything works! We are working really hard to build a fun atmosphere prior to the games.
Game Days:
September 23rd
October 14th
October 21st
November 11th

*Event flyers or submissions must be an actual event. We don't include sales or promotions.
*Events can be included in the E-Connection for one week free of charge. You have the option of adding one additional week for $20.
