WELLWVU invites WVU departments and organizations to sponsor a Hydration Station in April. Participating in a Hydration Station creates a fun opportunity to interact with students while encouraging safety and wellbeing and promoting your department or organization.
Volunteers will pass out water and snacks to WVU students and community members on the Downtown Campus, reminding them to stay hydrated and be safe if they choose to drink alcohol. There must be a minimum of two professional staff present at all times, though students are also encouraged to volunteer. It's recommended to have three to six volunteers present.
The following dates are available from 8-11 p.m. to sponsor a Hydration Station:
Friday, April 8
Thursday, April 14 (WVU spring holiday eve)
Friday, April 22
Friday, April 29
This three-hour time frame includes loading and unloading cases of water and snack items, set up and tear down. All water, snacks and other items will be provided by WELLWVU, along with detailed instructions.
Be aware that some heavy lifting and physical maneuvering is required for the loading and unloading process, as well as car space for cases of water, tables, chairs, etc. All items are stored near the bowling alley in the Mountainlair and the station is set up across from Boreman Hall.
Sign up to sponsor a Hydration Station.
