Only current, active U-M faculty or staff can attend the Sept. 19 event at Michigan Stadium (unfortunately, children are not allowed). All levels and abilities are welcome! Please bring your U-M Employee ID.
How many on-field sessions can I register for?
We are asking that participants register for only ONE on-field session; each person may register just for themselves.
Do I have to register for concourse activities?
No, registration is not required for CONCOURSE activities, including 15-minute sessions of Cardio Drumming, Wheelchair Ultimate and Exercises to Improve Balance.
I registered for an on-field session. Can I pick up my wristband in advance?

YES! To speed up your event-day check-in, come to one of these locations to pick up your class wristband before the event. Note, you can pick up your own wristband only; please bring your U-M Employee ID.    

Then just show up the day of the event wearing your wristband(s), get your U-M Employee ID swiped at Gate 1, and go right to the field!
