Golden Wave alumni are invited to kick off the Homecoming weekend with a reception hosted by the Golden Wave Band Council on Friday at 5:30 p.m. in the Jones Concert Hall lobby. Following the reception, alumni will march with the Golden Wave Band to the pep rally and bonfire at Fountain Mall at 8 p.m.
On Saturday, alumni band members will meet at 7 a.m. to check out their instruments and enjoy a continental breakfast in the Jones Concert Hall lobby. The alumni band will rehearse game music at 9:30 a.m. at Floyd Casey Stadium, followed at 10:30 a.m. by a business meeting.
