Employee Appreciation Day and Hokie Wellness Health and Benefits Fair on May 18

From: Human Resources

Save the date for the first-ever Virginia Tech Employee Appreciation Day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday, May 18, at Lane Stadium.

Beginning in 1993, the university has celebrated staff by holding Staff Appreciation Day in May for more than 3,500 staff and wage employees. This year, we are excited to invite all of our nearly 9,000 faculty, staff, and non-student wage employees, local to the Blacksburg campus, to come together as a community to express our appreciation for your hard work and dedication to Virginia Tech. Conversations are underway to explore potential future events at other locations around the Commonwealth.

In addition, the Hokie Wellness Health and Benefits Fair, historically held in January, will combine with the Employee Appreciation Day event to provide an enriched program for all.  The event will provide health and wellness vendors, games, a DJ, hourly walking tours, lunch, and more.

More information will be shared in the coming weeks. For questions, email employeeprograms@vt.edu.
