Tickets now available for ReuKnighted 2023
Niagara College is ready to roll out a welcome mat for its alumni community and rev up its school spirit for a one-of-a-kind reunion in early November: ReuKnighted 2023.
Organized by NC Alumni Relations, in collaboration with Athletics and Student Engagement, ReuKnighted is an opportunity for NC alumni to reconnect with their former classmates and the College community through social and athletic events at the Welland Campus November 3-4.
“We look forward to welcoming our amazing NC alumni back to campus for ReuKnighted 2023,” said Jana Boniferro, Director, Alumni Relations. “Whether they graduated recently or decades ago, ReuKnighted is the perfect opportunity for NC alumni to return to their alma mater, reconnect with former classmates and members of our college community, and cheer on our NC Knights!”
ReuKnighted 2023 will kick off with a tailgate party on Friday, November 3 at The Core (Welland Campus) beginning at 4 p.m., before the excitement moves to the gym for two basketball games featuring the NC Knights versus Lambton College (women’s at 6 p.m., men’s at 8 p.m.). Post-game festivities will be held at The Core (9:30 p.m.). The activity will continue Saturday, November 4 at the Welland Campus with campus tours starting at 11 a.m. in front of the gym, followed by women’s (1 p.m.) and men’s (3 p.m.) volleyball games versus Conestoga College.
“Our Knights teams, over the years, have contributed to our strong culture. It will be awesome to see Knights alumni and show them how their legacy continues,” said Michele O’Keefe, Director of Athletics and Student Engagement.
This year’s event also involves a new partnership with the College’s Culinary, Tourism and Beverage Studies division, offering guests culinary fare cooked and prepared by students from NC’s School of Culinary Arts.
Tickets are now available for $10 each, including access to the VIP tailgate (with two food tokens and one drink token), admission to basketball games on Friday, November 3 and Saturday, November 4, and free parking. Children under 12 are admitted free (RSVP is still required with the accompanying adult) and there will be special activities for ‘mini Knights.’
The first 100 alumni to register will receive a gift from Alumni Relations. Those who purchase tickets before Friday, October 20 will be entered automatically into a draw for an exclusive NC Knights themed gift basket valued at $250.
Tickets are available via Eventbrite here while supplies last.
The College will collect donations of non-perishable food items or cash at this year’s event for the Welland Food Bank. Items may be dropped off at The Core during the tailgate or at the gym entrance during the games.
This will be the third ReuKnighted event NC has hosted since ReuKnighted originally debuted in 2019.After a two-year hiatus, the annual alumni reunion event returned to campus last year.
Niagara College has an alumni community of more than 120,000 – and growing!
