Last Friday September 29th approximately 200 employees came out for the annual Cyday Friday employee fun walk! It was a beautiful fall day for a one mile jaunt around central campus, with special guest President Allen. Before the walk even started there was mayhem... a scurry to be one of the first 100 people there sporting ISU gear to get a FREE Cyday Friday water bottle! If you missed out on a chance for the water bottle - employees were encouraged to put their name in for a drawing - eight lucky people got special Cyday Friday prizes for attending!
