Hello Alumni and Friends of Marshall, October is here and that means Homecoming is just around the corner. I hope all of you plan to come into Huntington and celebrate with us this year. It’s a special year for Marshall in so many ways, a new president doing new things, a Hollywood movie about our story, just to name a few. Lots of things are planned to make Homecoming a great time again this year. The students and alumni involved are working hard to ensure a great weekend for everyone, so bring your green and white and join in for all of it. All week, the 23rd up to the game on the 28th, things will be happening on and around campus. Office decorations will go up on Monday and be judged on Thursday. The award winners will be announced that Friday morning at the Coaches Breakfast at the Alumni Center with trophies and prizes. Friday night everyone is invited to Pullman Square for music, pep rally and fun starting at 9 pm. Saturday is the big day with the parade at noon and tailgating until game time at 4:30. We hope to have lots of floats and at least 200 units in the parade this year, if not 300 [that’s Mike Hines’ goal]. So come line the streets from the Civic Center to the stadium and see the bands, floats and dancers. Come one come all for a great homecoming weekend. I’ll see you there. Sincerely,
Sharon Porter |
