PIKE Rivalry Run
On November 18 & 19, 2011, the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity from the University of Michigan continued their winning tradition of running the game
ball 187 miles from the campus of Ohio State University to the Big House in Ann Arbor. The annual fundraising initiative begins in early
October as the members of the fraternity reach out to family, friends, relatives and community members to support their event. In the past
two years, this initiative has raised over $98,000 to support the
Patient & Family Support Services Program through the Coach Carr Fund at the
University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center. Thank you to everyone for their support.
