I’m thrilled to personally invite you to the 4th Annual Wabash Valley Crew Rowing Challenge! This event is always a highlight of the year, and I’m excited to be a part of it. We’ll have a day of friendly competition, community spirit, and support for a cause that’s very close to my heart.

Challenge Categories Include:

• Celebrity 500
• Corporate Race
• First Responders

The proceeds from this event will go to Wabash Valley Crew, which provides rowing training, opportunities, and scholarships for local students across the Wabash Valley. It’s a wonderful initiative that opens doors for young people, teaching them about rowing, teamwork, discipline, and leadership—values I believe are vital for their future.

As the president of Indiana State University, I’ve seen firsthand how extracurricular activities like this help shape students’ lives, both in and out of the classroom. I’m proud to support Wabash Valley Crew’s mission to provide these enriching opportunities to local youth.

I invite you to donate to your favorite "celebrity participant" and join me in making this year’s challenge a success! Your generosity will help ensure that students in our community continue to have access to valuable programs and scholarships.

Let’s make this event the best one yet! Together, we can create a lasting impact on the lives of young people across the Wabash Valley.

I look forward to seeing you there!

Sincerely,
Mike Godard
President, Indiana State University
