Cross-Campus Walkers

Follow on Facebook

Beginning May 2, 2022, the Staff Council Wellness Committee will re-start the Cross-Campus Walkers club! Join us every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 12:30 PM in front of the Recreation & Fitness Center for a half-hour of mild exercise!

Depending on high heat or rain, we may walk on the UNO Recreation & Fitness Center walking track instead of walking around campus. In this case, you will need your faculty/staff ID!

Staff Council typically meets on the third Thursday of every month. As of now, meetings are being held via Zoom. The link is shared through a campus-wide calendar invitation.
