CLEMSON, S.C. – The Be A T.I.G.E.R. Field Day, a free youth event created and organized by Clemson University student-athletes, will take place on Saturday, April 6, 2019, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., on the Littlejohn Coliseum Lawn.
The theme of this year’s field day is “Under the Sea.” Presented by ScanSource, Greenville Zoo BI-LO, and Blue Choice Health Plan, the event is free and open for participation for children from kindergarten through eighth grade. Children and families are encouraged to to take part in this event prior to the Clemson Spring Football Game, which kicks off at 2:30 p.m. Saturday afternoon.
Be A T.I.G.E.R. Field Day focuses on games and activities to teach the T.I.G.E.R. character traits. Each letter in the word “TIGER” stands for a certain character trait that is important for young children to understand and practice in their everyday lives. “T” stands for teamwork, “I” for integrity, “G” for gratitude, “E” for education and “R” for respect.
Clemson student-athletes participate in leading the event activities, and parents are encouraged to attend with their children, signing them up at registration and helping lead them to each station. Children who attend and take part in all activities will receive a Be a T.I.G.E.R. t-shirt.
