The 2018 edition of Orange Fever Fiesta, the largest fundraising event for UTEP Athletics, will be held on Friday, May 18 at Grace Gardens, 6701 Westside Drive.
All proceeds for Orange Fever Fiesta, hosted by the Miner Athletic Club, benefit UTEP student-athlete scholarships.
"We are excited to be at Orange Fever Fiesta on May 18 to celebrate UTEP Athletics and the power of an athletic scholarship," UTEP Director of Athletics Jim Senter said. "Join me that evening in making a difference in the lives of our student-athletes."
The high-energy, fun-filled evening will include a live and silent auction (featuring mobile bidding via Bid Pal), live music and dancing.
UTEP student-athletes and head coaches will attend, including first-year Miner head football coach Dana Dimel and his staff. Paydirt Pete and the UTEP cheer squad will also be on hand.
"My staff and I cannot wait to be there at Orange Fever Fiesta to meet great UTEP supporters and help raise funds for deserving UTEP Miners," Dimel said.
