Classmates spanning from 1955 to 2021 will return to campus for official reunions. This year’s gatherings are highlighted by 50-year anniversary reunions for the classes of 1970 and 1971, the Golden Panther Luncheon for 55-, 60- and 65-year graduates and, new this year, Reunion Zero for members of the classes of 2020 and 2021. Special events are highlighted by Sigma Chi fraternity’s daylong 150th-anniversary celebration and Benjamin Templeton Scholars, LGBTQIA+ and multicultural gatherings.
Hanoverfest – Hanover’s traditional on-going party in the tailgate lot – will offer a full day of fun activities for all ages. The event, which runs throughout the day at the Panther Athletic Complex, will combine classmates, friends and family with food, beverages and live music from local artist Rusty Bladen.
The College’s Homecoming festivities will cap a day of fun and entertainment with a special fireworks presentation. Originating from the athletic complex, vibrant fireworks will light up the sky and be viewable from all across campus.
Hanover’s weekend activities will continue Sunday, Oct. 3. Many classmates are planning to gather for meals and tours of nearby Madison, Ind., and President Lake Lambert will deliver a morning sermon at the Hanover Presbyterian Church.
