Homecoming Celebration
Richard Wackar Stadium, Lot O-1, Lot O | 11:00 a.m. | Open to All
You are invited to return home for a special Centennial Homecoming Celebration. We’re “Celebrating a Century” and we can’t commemorate 100 years of remarkable achievements without you!
Our efforts to make this year extra special are 100-fold! You can look forward to our new University Showcase area, an opportunity to explore Rowan’s Colleges, Schools, departments and all they’ve been up to since you left; three tailgating areas reserved for some of our most #RowanPROUD affinity groups; some of the best food trucks in the region; and a Kids Zone that’ll keep your little owls occupied for at least 100 minutes (or longer!) with Touch-A-Truck, face painting, balloon art, inflatables and more. You can also ‘Cheers!’ to a century from one of two beer gardens this year.
Registration is free, and the first 1,000 alumni to visit the Welcome Tent on October 14th will receive a limited-edition centennial tote bag and ticket to the big game. The first 500 students to swipe in with their Rowan ID at the Welcome Tent will receive $10 in food truck vouchers.
This event is sponsored by the Office of Alumni Engagement, Rowan University Alumni Association, Chamberlain Student Center & Campus Activities and Rowan Athletics
