  If you are a business owner who is able to donate a prize, please contact Karen Wanamaker 610-683-4709.

Participation: Anyone can participate in this event, but only KU students are eligible for the prizes. If you would like to use this event for course credit or as a student organization requirement, there will be a place on the student form for course or organization information. Once we compile all the forms, we will let you know which of your students participated. Please let us know if you will be offering/requiring participation, though. It helps us to know how many forms to print. 

Due Date: This year, students will have until Friday to turn in the orientation forms, opening up participation beyond our official open house day! This gives interested students several days to complete the questions and still have a chance at participation credit and/or the prize drawing!

For more information about our open house, please contact us: Karen Wanamaker (kwanamak@kutztown.edu) or Krista Prock (prock@kutztown.edu).
