'Nearly Naked Mile' slated for Oct. 25

Oct. 24, 2012 — Morehead State University’s Student Alumni Ambassadors will host the sixth annual “Nearly Naked Mile” on Thursday, Oct. 25.

The one-mile charity run will begin on the lawn of the Adron Doran University Center on the MSU campus. The event will begin at 8:30 p.m. with registration.

The “Nearly Naked Mile” is a coat drive benefit event for Rowan County Schools Family Resource and Youth Service Centers. Faculty, staff, students and community members are encouraged to donate new or unwanted coats for distribution.

Coats can be dropped off at 358 University Street or donated on the evening of the event.

Participants in the “Nearly Naked Mile” can come dressed in costume or in comfortable running clothes. Refreshments will be provided.

Prizes for the event will be awarded to first, second and third place finishers, as well as the most creative costume and the “Nearly Naked” spirit award.

In last year’s run, more than 120 runners participated in the charity event with more than 150 coats collected.
