The University of Illinois Department of Intercollegiate Athletics will be honoring our Military in recognition of Veteran’s Day at our Nov. 16 football game this year. They would like to include some Fighting Illini “shout outs” and pictures of our Illinois “family” serving in the military here and overseas.
Any student or alumni who are serving in the military are invited to send a video or picture to be included. You can simply video tape your “shout out” using the script below, load to YouTube, and complete the form at http://www.fightingillini.com/shoutout.
Or please send a picture of your “Illinois” loved one or friend who is currently overseas, and we will recognize some of them during the game. Simply send the picture with the name of the person and hometown via email to DIAMarketing@illinois.edu
Both video and picture submissions are due Wednesday, Nov. 13 at 5 pm CST.
Please use this “SHOUT OUT” SCRIPT:
Hi, my name is [name] from [city, IL] and I’m stationed in [place]. I’d like to say [hi to my mom and dad, etc.- Be Brief] and [GO ILLINI, Oskee wow wow, etc.].
