Phil Slater 5K
The Phil Slater Memorial 5K is an annual running event held at Squirrel Park in West Lafayette. The event is presented by the Tau Chapter of Phi Delta Chi at Purdue University to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention in memory of Phil Slater.
The event features a 5-kilometre course and runs as a community gathering. It is open to students, university faculty, and members of the local community. Donations and proceeds are directed to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in the name of Phil Slater.
Registration and payment options are handled by the organizer and include online and in-person methods named by the organizer. Some residence halls may cover registration for residents; participants are advised to confirm whether that applies to them. A refund policy is in place that allows refunds up to seven days before the event.
The Tau Chapter describes the event as an opportunity to promote mental health and suicide awareness while supporting a charitable cause. Additional participant information is provided by the organizer after registration. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
