Be A T.I.G.E.R Field Day Set

CLEMSON, SC – The “Be A T.I.G.E.R. Field Day,” a free youth event created and organized by Clemson student-athletes, will take place on Saturday, April 8, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., on the Littlejohn Lawn. Presented by Bi-LO and ScanSourse, the event is free for children grades K through 8.

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.

Student-athletes from each of Clemson’s athletic teams participate in the event, and parents are encouraged to attend with their children, signing them up at registration and helping lead them to each station. Youth who attend and take part in all activities will receive a Be A T.I.G.E.R. t-shirt and other prizes throughout the day.

The 2017 Be A T.I.G.E.R Field Day Student-Directors are Alexis Georgia and Rebecca Simonetti, members of the Clemson Rowing team. If you have specific questions about the event, Alexis can be reached at: ageorgi@clemson.edu.
