Each year UB is a proud participant in the JP Morgan Chase Corporate Challenge. The annual race, benefiting Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) and the Buffalo Olmsted Parks Conservancy, draws more than 10,000 participants from hundreds of companies. This year's UB Corporate Challenge tent party has a UB spirit theme and we want to be the largest corporate team! Last year, we had close to 200 participants.
Time & Place
The race starts at 6:45pm, in Delaware Park. Run, jog or walk the 3.5 mile course (or stay in the tent!), then party until dark. Come early, the team photo will be taken at 6:00pm sharp!
We will be providing FREE bus transportation from North and South campuses. If you would like to reserve your spot on a bus please email jrgarcia@buffalo.edu with which location you are interested in.
