Sigma Lambda Gamma Education Foundation Panther Dash for Progress 5k

The Sigma Lambda Gamma Education Foundation presents the return of the Panther Dash, newly renamed, the Panther Dash for Progress 5k! 

While we may not be able to come together due to a canceled in-person Sigma Lambda Gamma 30th Anniversary Convention in Iowa City, Iowa, the 2020 Panther Dash for Progress 5k will bring us together virtually! 

PANTHER DASH SWAG

This year, registrants will receive a custom-made, limited edition Panther Dash fannie pack - the only gift item from our sorority's 30th anniversary year!

FAQ

Where is the race?
Glad you asked! The 5k route is your choice. No matter where you'll be, you can participate in the global virtual Panther Dash for Progress 5K race!

What is a "virtual" race? 
A virtual race is a race you can do anywhere, anytime! You choose the location and the time. Throughout the race, share your pictures and experience with the SLGEF social media profiles with the hashtags: #PantherDash, #SLGEF

Do registrants have to participate all on the same day? 
No. As a virtual runner, you can select a day to run that best fits your schedule from Sept. 19 - Sept. 27.

How will I receive my custom-made, limited edition, Panther Dash fannie pack?
Fannie packs are limited. The first 200 registrants will receive this gift 1 - 2 weeks before Sept. 19, regardless of when they have registered. Due to Coronavirus and slow postal service, registrants who purchase after Sept. 1, will not be guaranteed a fannie pack by the week of the race.

What if I wanted to purchase two fannie packs? Will I have to register twice? 
Yes. Two fannie packs = two separate registrations.

Who can participate? 
Anyone ages 8 and up! If you can walk, jog or run a 5K, you can participate. This event is open to members of Sigma Lambda Gamma, friends, family, and anyone who wants to show support! While maintaining social distancing, invite others to walk, jog or run with you. 

I'm not sure I can run a 5K, can I still participate? 
Yes! You do not have to run. You can walk, jog, run, or do a combination of all three - just get to the finish line!

Why are we doing this again? 
Proceeds from the Panther Dash for Progress will go to the Sigma Lambda Gamma Education Foundation (SLGEF), which serves to support scholastic achievement and continue the commitment to life-long learning and service through scholarships for sisters of Sigma Lambda Gamma. The SLGEF mobilizes the giving power of our donors to support scholastic achievement, provide and continue the commitment to life-long learning and service to the global community.
