Lisa Eikenburg

There will be transportation to and from the voting booth at Wheelock School for the Fredonia campus and those living in the district encompassing campus, on Election Day from 2 to 6 p.m.

The bus will run between the shelter outside the Williams Center and Wheelock School.

In addition, the ALL IN Challenge committee will be sponsoring an "Election Results Party" for students and faculty to watch the results live at the Williams Center’s Multipurpose Room from 9 p.m. until results are complete (but no later than 1 a.m. Wednesday). There will be pizza and veggies at 9 p.m. and a drawing at 10 p.m. by President Virginia Horvath for a student group to receive $100 or $50 in funding. Cookies will be served later in the evening.

The "ALL IN Challenge" committee was charged with bringing awareness to civic engagement and the importance of voting. The committee held numerous activities during the election season and sent various informational emails out to encourage students to participate in campus events and become aware of the issues relating to the upcoming elections.

Fredonia's slogan for the ALL IN CHALLENGE is: "Your Vote...Your Future!"
