MIDLAND, Texas (April 29, 2022) – The “best hour of the week” – Baylor University’s Dr Pepper Hour – is making three local stops at Midland-Odessa campuses as part of an eight-week tour of Texas and Colorado. The Dr Pepper Hour Tour will drop in Monday, May 2, at Trinity School of Midland; Tuesday, May 3, at Midland’s Legacy High School; and Wednesday, May 4, at Odessa’s UTPB STEM Academy.
Dr Pepper Hour – a tradition of Baylor University since 1953 – is closing out its statewide high school tour to deliver the sweet experience of Dr Pepper floats alongside the excitement of being a part of the Baylor Family.
“We wanted to extend the Baylor campus experience across the state and beyond by sharing this legendary Baylor treat with prospective students,” explains Jason Cook, Baylor’s vice president for marketing and communications and chief marketing officer. “It’s such a unique tradition; where else do students enjoy free ice cream with their friends every week of their college experience?”
Dr Pepper Hour is held on the Baylor campus every Tuesday from 3 to 4 p.m. with free Dr Pepper floats for students. Currently, more than 50 students from the Midland-Odessa area attend Baylor University.
A custom Baylor and Dr Pepper-branded truck and trailer will spend the eight-week tour from March to May stopping at select high schools in Waco, Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, Tyler, Longview and Midland-Odessa. The tour concludes in Colorado with stops planned in and around the Denver area.
The trailer will set up shop, creating a Baylor experience, including tents and Baylor signage, Baylor Admissions counselors and Dr Pepper float kits for the first 300 students. Each student will be provided a Baylor-branded cup, ice cream and a can of Dr Pepper to help recreate one of the University’s most beloved on-campus traditions. Additional Baylor merch and giveaways will be available.
For more information, including a schedule of upcoming tour stops, a request function for future Dr Pepper Hour tour visits, Baylor admissions, the official Dr Pepper Hour recipes – including a gluten- and dairy-free style – and a video tutorial from Baylor President Linda A. Livingstone, Ph.D., and the First Family, visit DrPepperHourTour.com.
