ORTHONOW HEAT GUIDELINES
It's going to be a hot one this year. Please view this one-page information sheet from the CDC on how to recognize and respond to signs of heat-related illness. Remember to drink plenty of water, stay in the shade when possible, and wear sunscreen.
Athlete Village
It's good eats from Taco Cabana, tailgating, barbecuing and a free beer garden. The Athlete Village is located between the Convocation Center, tennis courts and Benson Stadium. Don’t forget to adhere to the UIW Tailgating Policies, which includes no glass containers and a required fire extinguisher for all teams cooking. UIW staff will be circling the village every 20-30 minutes to dispose of any coals. Please contact your team captain to locate your company tailgating space.
