Photo gallery Badgers on the move
Badgers across campus celebrated Active Badger Day on March 7 with more than 20 events, from yoga to bowling, basketball, a food drive and free smoothie samples. Recreation & Wellbeing hosts the event annually to encourage members of the University of Wisconsin–Madison community to be active, get fit and live well.

Groups of middle school students from the Madison area participate in a variety of open play games such as basketball, indoor running and tag with UW–Madison students from the Badgers for Special Olympics student organization.
The event was a partnership between Rec Well, Special Olympics Wisconsin and Badgers for Special Olympics.
