The Greeley City Council on Tuesday issued a proclamation declaring June 2, 2026, as University of Northern Colorado Women’s Volleyball International Goodwill Tour Day. The proclamation honored the team ahead of its June trip to Japan and recognized the players as representatives of both UNC and the Greeley community.

Mayor Dale Hall read the proclamation during Item 5b, saying the tour will give student-athletes a chance to compete internationally, take part in cultural exchange and serve as ambassadors of goodwill through volleyball. He also tied the trip to Greeley’s sister-city relationship with Moriya, Japan, saying the visit strengthens bonds between the two communities and reflects shared values of education, collaboration and global citizenship.

After Hall presented the proclamation, Mayor Pro Tem Melissa McDonald thanked the city for its support and said the team was excited to visit Moriya. A team representative added that the tour is scheduled for June 14-24 and will also include stops in Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo.

In the proclamation, Hall encouraged residents to recognize and celebrate the team’s dedication, achievement and representation of the community on the global stage.
