You are welcome to sign up for as much or as little as your schedule will allow. Each volunteer will receive a free Reunion Weekend t-shirt. Volunteer shirts will be in red so alumni and guests know who is working the event. Mark Thaden, director of Alumni Relations, will send a follow up note the week before Reunion Weekend confirming your time and duties as well as any other specific information you may need for your shift. Please feel free to forward this to any alumni, friends, or colleagues who may be interested in volunteering.
If you would like additional information or if you have any questions, contact Mark Thaden at (540) 654-1011.
