Dog Day Wins Grant from Zipcar and Ford for Tour, Travel
Popular on-campus improv comedy group The Dog Day Players was determined the winner of the monthly Students with Drive grant program from Zipcar and Ford for the month of October. Through this program, the group will receive $5,500 to use toward travel and tour as necessary.
“It’s a good feeling to know we have that grant money to fall back on because it can be hard to mobilize for tour,” Elena Ridker ’16 said. “This is just a big relief because we know we can count on that money.”
In order to enter the competition, groups must tell Zipcar more about themselves and what they would do with the grant money for travel. After this, people can go to the ZipcarU Facebook page and vote for groups.
As a winner of this monthly award, Dog Day is now in the running for the Students with Drive grand prize worth $25,000, which will be awarded in April.
