The Chamber of Commerce announced the 2nd Hidden SIU tour last week. Get a chance to visit campus spots that the average person never gets to:
SIU
alumni, staff, students and area residents have an opportunity to get a
behind-the-scenes look at otherwise unseen parts of Southern Illinois
University thanks to a tour planned by the Carbondale Chamber of
Commerce in cooperation with SIU administrators and staff.
Now in
its second year, “Hidden SIU” is billed by event organizers as “a one of
a kind field trip,” taking participants to places usually unseen - even
by those who have spent years on campus. The event, set for 3:30 p.m.,
Thursday, April 30, includes stops that will intrigue a variety of
people. This year’s event is all new. The 2014 tour included visits to
the green roof at the SIU Agriculture Building, visits on to the field
at Saluki Stadium, a peak at basketball locker rooms and an opportunity
to go inside one of the University’s steam tunnels.
The
program includes transportation to all destinations and concludes with a
catered meal at approximately 7 p.m. Organizers say the event will
include significant walking.
The
event is limited to 40 participants. Reservations are $30 per person,
which includes all transportation, parking, and dinner costs. For more
information or to reserve space as part of the Hidden SIU Tour, call the
Carbondale Chamber of Commerce at (618) 549-2146.
