This year’s Alumni Game is the second game of the season, September 10th, versus Fresno State. We look forward to seeing as many alumni as possible, participating in a
spectacular half-time show and renewing friendships.
This year’s weekend will provide several opportunities for fun and camaraderie in addition to the game. Our Friday night dinner has grown every year at Auld Pavilion Ballroom
in Antelope Park. Famous Dave’s will cater the meal for the third straight year. The venue is adjacent to the playground at Antelope Park, making it convenient for alumni with young children. This year’s dinner will feature a program honoring Director Emeritus of the Cornhusker Marching Band, Jack Snider. Jack’s efforts with the CMB contributed to the many traditions and the fine reputation of the band that continue today. If you know Jack, I am sure you will want to attend. If you are a more recent alum, this is an opportunity to learn about the band’s storied past.
Our post-game party will be held for the fourth consecutive year at the Apothecary Loft
in the Haymarket. For an advance registration of just $5.00 per person, you can join
your fellow alums and guests for Runzas, Valentino’s Pizza, sodas, and water. This unstructured event offers opportunities for socializing, eating, relaxing, and watching
other games on the flat screen TVs in a comfortable venue.
Please make plans to attend. Registrations are due by August 26th. We look forward
to seeing you there.
