ROTC Fundraiser: Pushin' for Pennies

The Wheaton College Rolling Thunder Battalion is hosting a "Pushin' for Pennies" fundraising event. Supporters can sponsor cadets by donating 1-4 pennies for every push-up the cadet can do in one hour. Proceeds will benefit Wheaton College's ROTC Ranger Challenge Team.

Ranger Challenge has been described as the varsity sport of ROTC. Every year Wheaton fields a 9-man, 5-man, and most recently a 5-woman team to compete in state and regional Ranger Challenge Competitions. Wheaton teams consistently place 1st among all Ranger Challenge Teams in Illinois.

The one-hour fundraising event will be held in the Fireside Room, located in the lower level of the Todd M. Beamer Center. For more information, call 630.752.5015.
