The First-Year Leaders Program and Vanderbilt Student Government will be teaming up to host Vanderbilt's first ever pillow fight. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.

Students can team up for the freeze tag pillow fight on Library Lawn beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday. Food and live music will be provided, and participants and spectators alike will be able to learn more about Parkinson's disease.

There is a $50 entry fee per team, with a minimum of 10 team members and a maximum of 13. Students not already part of a team can also come to the event and pay $5 to be added to a last-minute team. Teams can consist of anything from members of various campus organizations, Greek chapters and residence halls.
Spectators can pay $2 for admission.

Prizes from local businesses such as Yogurt Oasis, P.F. Chang's, T.G.I. Friday's and Fido will be awarded to the top three teams.
