Celebrate Your Family – Annual Alumni Legacy Breakfast @ 9:30 am in the Student Union Ballroom; Tickets go on sale on Monday, July 14th at 10:00 am

Does your family bleed blue? If you’re an alumni parent, grandparent, and/or sibling with a current student attending UConn, we consider your family a UConn legacy family. You’re invited to celebrate your legacy together at our annual Family Weekend event! Share memories and UConn traditions with your Husky family while enjoying a buffet breakfast. Special guests will share remarks, and our legacy pinning ceremony tradition will follow. This event is $16 per family member, $8 for children ages 6 – 12, and free for current UConn students and children under 5. Due to popular demand for this tradition, we are hosting one seating in a larger venue this year so that we can accommodate more families. This event has sold out in years past, so we highly recommend registering early.
