UW Alumni Association Plans Kickoff Friday Events

Cowboy football fans are invited to start their game weekends with the University of Wyoming Alumni Association (UWAA) every Friday of a UW home football game at the Alumni Center in the Marian H. Rochelle Gateway Center, located at 222 S. 22nd St.

“The UWAA staff and I look forward to welcoming our alumni and friends to the Alumni Center on Cowboy football weekends,” UWAA Executive Director Keener Fry says. “Stop by and connect with your UW friends and meet UW leaders to catch up on the latest UW happenings. We are excited about beginning this new tradition for the brown and gold.”

The first three Kickoff Fridays are sponsored by First Interstate Bank. Dates are Aug. 31, Sept. 14 and Sept. 28. They will start at 4 p.m., end at 5:30 p.m. and include light appetizers and a cash bar. UWAA members will receive one complimentary drink at the cash bar.

On Homecoming weekend, the Kickoff Friday event will be all day in conjunction with Homecoming registration. It will run from 7:30 a.m.-5 p.m. Oct. 19 and feature light appetizers and nonalcoholic beverages.
