TriAncillaAncilla College will be holding its seventh annual TriAncilla sprint triathlon on June 6, 2015.  The USA Triathlon-sanctioned race will start at 9 a.m. EDT on the grounds of The Center at Donaldson, home of Ancilla College.

Proceeds from TriAncilla serve to fund scholarships for Ancilla College.  Todd Zeltwanger, Race Chairperson states that the event does more than just that. “We are excited about the seventh annual Tri Ancilla sprint triathlon that not only raises much-needed financial aid for our students, but also showcases our scenic campus grounds here at The Center at Donaldson.”

The race begins with a 3.1 mile run through natural Indiana prairie and beautifully restored wetlands.  A 500-yard swim through scenic Lake Galbraith comes next, followed by an 11-mile bike ride around the 1200 rural acres of the grounds of The Center at Donaldson, American Province home of the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ.

Both individual and team registrations are available online at https://www.ancilla.edu/events/tri-ancilla/.  States Zeltwanger, “We look forward to welcoming both new and returning participants to Ancilla College on June 6th.”
