... Day is fast approaching. To the surprise of many, there is a makeup day for last April's ND Day. ND Day 2020 is next Monday and Tuesday, and while the rules have changed and another ND Day will be held in spring 2021, one thing that has remained the same- the rallying of support for the oldest and most storied residence hall at Notre Dame- Steds. Once again, the Gentlemen are asking for any and all support from any and all persons wherever they may be for this revised and truncated ND Day. If you are unaware of this important day, below is a message being sent to all friends of St. Edward's that explains what all the commotion is about. On ND Day 2020, Peter Nichols, Steds Hall President and mailman, shared, "Due to COVID halting last spring's ND Day, and the fact Steds did not receive a stimulus check, we need your support this upcoming Notre Dame Day. Through your generosity, we are able to host our beloved events as well as start new ones, make renovations and upgrades to the Hall, support our inter-hall sports teams, and much much more. In short, it makes Steds, well, Steds. None of this would be possible without your support for this Notre Dame Day! Remember -- vote Steds and spread the word!
What is Notre Dame Day?
Notre Dame Day is a day for celebrating all things Notre Dame. We hope that you tune in, take action, and help the important work of Notre Dame’s OLDEST AND MOST STORIED RESIDENCE HALL: ST. EDWARD’S HALL.
Why is this important?
Your participation will directly impact the life of our hall, and right now, we need to be impacted by more than just the Covid!
How do I impact the life of St. Edward’s?
Watch the ND Day broadcast at notredameday.nd.edu and at the site, go to "causes." Next, in the search bar, type in St. Edward’s (or St Ed’s), and give what you can. No gift is too much nor any gift too small. You can also find us by looking under residence halls too.
Remember ND Day is on Monday, October 26th, and Tuesday, October 27th, and begins each night at 6:42PM EST, ending at 11:59PM EST.
And don’t forget, please share this email with others, anyone and everyone can participate for St. Ed’s!
What will St. Edward’s Hall do with its Notre Dame Day funds?
As the oldest residence hall on campus, we need your votes to help keep our hall the special place that it is. We have used past ND Day funds to make improvements to our common spaces, our pool room, the study lounges, gym and so much more. We have also used funds for a new basketball hoop, video game consoles, a new outdoor hall sign, and new uniforms for our hall sports teams to win in style. Check out the Hall’s blog HERE to see the daily life in St. Ed’s and the impact that this ND Day has here. But NONE of this would be possible if not for you. Your participation, the encouraging of others to do the same, make all of this possible and have a tremendous impact on the lives, camaraderie, and spirits of those who call this hall their home under the Dome.
So, this ND Day, give to St. Edward’s!
All our love and thanks,
St. Edward & The Gentlemen of St. Edward’s Hall
