About this Event
Join your fellow former Marching Salukis at their annual reunion celebration, starting at 5 p.m. on Friday, October 16. This year’s event will be hosted in the SIU Student Center.
The itinerary of the evening will include the Alumni Band Group Annual Business Meeting, followed by a reception. Pizza, desserts, other refreshments, and a gift will be provided.
Ticket prices include two drink tickets per person. More drinks will be available at the bar for additional suggested donations.
On Saturday, alumni will have the option to perform with the current Marching Salukis during the football game.
Participants were given T-shirts to keep in previous years. It will be your responsibility to bring them with you this year. If you need to replace the shirt, it will cost $15. Please remember to indicate your shirt size as well as instrument needs when completing the registration form.
If you can't join us on Friday, you will have the option to perform with the Marching Salukis on Saturday at no cost. No gifts or drink items are included with this option.
We hope you'll join us for a memorable weekend of memories, music, and Saluki pride!
Special Note: If you play a reed instrument (clarinet, saxophone, etc.) and plan to play with the band, please bring your own reeds.
