The onset and continuation of Covid-19 over the past year and a half has halted some of our initiatives here at SAAC, which has challenged us to find creative alternatives to our traditional programming. In our most recent meeting, SAAC voted in favor of participating in a mileage challenge put on by the Women's Sports Foundation. Demi McClung brought this initiative to our attention; a 2021 alumna and former swimmer for the Saints swim & dive team, Demi now works for the Women's Sports Foundation.
This challenge supports and honors National Girls and Women in Sports Day (NGWSD), as well as the 50th anniversary of the passing of Title IX.  All proceeds go to the Women Sports Foundation to continue supporting girls & women at all levels of sport. 
All St. Lawrence teams are invited to participate in the 50-mile challenge (registration details below). Walk, run, swim, bike 50 miles (whether that be all at once, or spreading the miles out) before the end of the semester and your team will be sent some swag from WSF.  We hope that we can get as many teams as possible to partake in this initiative!! Here we go Saints!
