Events Will Be Held During College’s Annual Homecoming & Family Weekend
Blackburn College is excited to invite the community to celebrate two significant additions to campus during the annual Homecoming & Family Weekend. On Saturday, September 28, dedication ceremonies will be held for the new basketball and volleyball court – M.C. Court, named after legendary Blackburn and Carlinville figure Marion Carlson – and for the new, state-of-the-art Blackburn Athletic Center.
The first ceremony will begin at 9:00 am, followed by an Alumni Volleyball match. The new Blackburn Athletic Center will be dedicated at 11:00 am, followed by guided tours of the facility. Shortly after the events, the men’s and women’s soccer teams will face off against conference rival Westminster (MO), and the annual BeaverNation Fan Zone will be in full force.
Both events are open to the public, and everyone is encouraged to attend as part of the larger Homecoming & Family Weekend festivities. Find the full Homecoming 2024 schedule and register to attend our Homecoming page.
