Mud Tug is an annual 10-vs-10 tug-of-war in the mud hosted by Phi Kappa Psi and Zeta Tau Alpha Greek organizations.  The winners celebrate and the losers get dirty with 100% of proceeds going to Hillside Family of Agencies.  This year at the 16th Annual Mud Tug, 155 teams tugged, over 2,000 people attended and over $10,800 was raised making this the biggest Mud Tug yet!

Jenna is an Advertising and Public Relations student at RIT, minoring in Marketing. She is a cupcake lover (although she loves how they look more than they taste), advocate of Breast Cancer education and awareness, sister of ZTA and assistant at RIT Sports Information. She loves wedding blogs, sailing, photography, bright colors, nail polish and a new pair of Sperry Top Siders. She has traveled to Spain, Israel, Italy, Greece, Croatia, Germany and Canada- with Spain and Israel being her favorites outside the U.S. Within the states, Jenna loves Rhode Island (especially the town of Watch Hill); Seattle, Washington; and Dallas, Texas. Although she is from the Garden State, Jenna hates the Jersey shore but does love to fist pump once in a while and hopes to move to Texas after graduation. With three PR internships as well as an advertising one under her belt, Jenna hopes to persue a career in either of these fields... or wedding planning, but she can keep dreaming.
