Sigma Nu's new candidate class camped out on Oct. 9 by Broncho Lake to raise money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. They are continuing to raise money for their philanthropy by starting a letter-writing campaign.

Students can participate in the letter-writing campaign by filling out letters with the names of people they know will donate to St. Jude's. The letters will be provided by Sigma Nu, said Kenny Reinbold, president of Sigma Nu.

This year's campaign banquet will be from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. Oct. 9 in the Communications Building in Room 120. There will be prizes for people who bring the most names and free food for everyone, Reinbold said.

"I hope everyone realizes how special St. Jude's is," Reinbold said.

"We had to come up with the details on-the-fly," John Bobb-Semple, a junior marketing and political science major, said. Bobb-Semple said that this experience will help them grow as a class.

Reinbold said that this experience will help the new class come together as a team and help raise their own awareness for St. Jude's.

The class came up with ideas that included pushing people to class for one to two dollars on a couch and roasting s'mores for students who donated money.

The goal, Bobb-Semple said, is to raise $1,000. He said that the class is thinking of new things as they go.

"We're learning," he said. "We really believe we can do it," Bobb-Semple said.

Sigma Nu has been camping out for the past three years, but this year they hope to exceed their past goals with the letter-writing campaign, Reinbold said.

For more information on the campaign or how to donate to St. Jude's contact Reinbold at kreinbold@ucok.edu.
