With Homecoming less than a month away, plans are in full
swing and the Wentworth staff is working to put the finishing touches on a Homecoming
celebration that is sure to provide something for everyone! The Wentworth campus will soon welcome home
alumni from around the country and extend the opportunity for them to
reconnect, share memories and celebrate Homecoming with the 135th
Corps of Cadets through honored traditions such as Lunch with the Corps and the
Memorial Ceremony/Dress Parade.
In
addition to these traditional favorites, Homecoming 2014 will also introduce
new events and a focus on family-centered fun for alumni who wish to share
their dragon spirit with children and grandchildren. Festivities will include the First Annual
Dragon Den Festival, a carnival atmosphere packed with games, food and fun for
Dragons of all ages.
A Saturday afternoon reception honoring Wentworth's supporters is another new feature. Those alumni who have earned Red Coats through the Century Club program are being encouraged to wear them to the reception and Alumni Dinner on Saturday evening. It's a visible sign of the support that today's cadets receive from those who have preceded them.
Homecoming 2014 will kick off on Friday, October 10 with the
Alumni Golf Tournament and Lunch with the Corp.
Festivities will run through Sunday, October 12 and wrap up with a
brunch following the Memorial Ceremony/Dress Parade and Alumni Flag Ceremony. This year’s theme is “Honoring Our Veterans”
lending itself to a weekend packed full of opportunities to salute all those
who have served our country. For more
