Nearly 2,000 students, parents, alumni, employees, and friends took part in the 2023 Parents, Families & Alumni Weekend, including some of Behrend’s oldest alumni, who were guests at a special “pioneer” reunion event.
From the Friday evening alumni awards and receptions to Saturday’s family carnival and dozens of other activities to Sunday’s Wintergreen Gorge tours, there was no shortage of fun to be found.
The 75th anniversary fireworks on Saturday night, sponsored by Wm. T. Spaeder Company, drew a large crowd that enjoyed a spectacular 20-minute show!
Save the date for this year’s reunion: October 18-20, 2024
