Homecoming 2008...

 

                                          Cruisin' Through the Decades

 

Fall is upon us and many new and exciting things are happening on campus.  Our enrollment looks healthy; our library is currently undergoing renovations, and many other upgrades are underway.  We hope you are planning to attend Homecoming scheduled for the weekend of October 17-18.  We think you will be pleasantly surprised with all of the growth and excitement.

 

Homecoming kicks off on Friday, October 17, with the annual 50's Get Together at the Candlewyck Inn beginning at 6 p.m.  The cost of the buffet is $17.50 and includes a non-alcoholic drink, dessert, tax and gratuity.  Reservations are required and the deadline is October 10.  Contact Pat Hovis at (304) 788-4065 or phovis1@verizon.net for more information.

 

On Saturday, the Homecoming Brunch & Recognition of Anniversary Classes '58, '83, and '98 will be held in the Heritage Room, located in the new residence hall complex, from 9 until 10:30 a.m.  Campus Provost Kerry Odell will provide a presentation of new campus initiatives around 10 a.m.

 

If you are a golfer, you might want to participate in the Potomac State Alumni Golf Outing, which will be held at the Pines Golf Course, on Saturday.  The event will begin at 9 a.m. and the cost is $40 per player.  Reservations can be made by contacting William Ack at (304) 788-3276.

 

Other activities scheduled for Saturday include various tours, a vintage car show, a silent auction (Click here to view the items for bid) , and the rededication of the Mary F. Shipper Library.  A shuttle bus will make the campus loop from 8:30 a.m. until 10 p.m. 

 

The day will culminate with the Awards Banquet which is being held in the Davis Conference Center, the former Potomac Cafe.  Alumni Achievement Honorees include Mark Riccardi, Class of 1977, and Patricia Sanders, Class of 1950.  Our Distinguished Service Honorees are Harvey and Betty Moses, both from the Class of 2003, and Margaret Vorous, Class of 1967.  The recipient of the Young Alumni Award is Ivy Guiler, Class of 2003.  Click here to learn more about each of the honorees.

 

The social hour will begin at 5:30 with dinner at 6 p.m.  The cost for the dinner is $20 for adults and $10 for children 12 and under.  Reservations are required and we are asking you to respond no later than October 10 by contacting Libby Nichols at 1-800-262-7332 or (304) 788-6870. 

 

After the banquet, you are invited to join current students in the Student Union for a Sock Hop.  Local resident, Scot Furry will be the DJ from 8:30 until 10 p.m.
