Alumni Association’s Alumni Center 15th Anniversary Showcase open to public
The K-State Alumni Association invites the community to a special showcase Oct. 12
celebrating the 15th anniversary of the opening of the Alumni Center. This family-friendly
event will take place 3-7 p.m. and will highlight Alumni Association programs and
services.
The interactive showcase will feature booths from Alumni Association departments and
some of the Alumni Center’s caterers and vendors. In addition, Greg Hardin, author
of “When I grow up, I want to be a K-State Wildcat” will host a book signing and a
wine tasting will be hosted by Mano’s Inc.
Guests will be able to get a ticket at every booth they visit to enter prize drawings.
The grand prize will be an Alumni Center first floor rental package (some restrictions
may apply). Other prizes include K-State gear and gift items.
Attendees also will be able to snap photos with Willie the Wildcat, enjoy free food
samples, participate in kids activities, view K-State artifacts in the Memorabilia
Room, and take family portraits by the Wildcat Statue. Music will be provided by Complete
Music DJ service. Free parking for this event will be available on the west side of
the building.
The K-State Alumni Center opened next to K-State’s World War I Memorial Stadium in
2002, after a successful fundraising campaign. The center provides a home for the
Alumni Association and also offers rental space for weddings, meetings, graduation
parties, anniversaries, reunions and more.
More details will be posted as they become available on Facebook and the Alumni Association event calendar.
