Arkansas Alumni Association's Workin' Like a Hog Summer Picnic Set for May 29
This semester flew by and it's time again for the Arkansas Alumni Association’s Workin' Like a Hog Summer Picnic!
All YOU of A faculty and staff are invited to join the Alumni Association from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Thursday, May 29, at the Janelle Y. Hembree Alumni House. Take a little break and unwind after Workin' Like a Hog all semester long. It's the association's favorite event of the year because members all get to catch up and appreciate the contributions made to support the #YOUofA!
This year the Alumi Association is celebrating the half-decade anniversary of Workin’ Like a Hog thanks to the amazing faculty and staff who support the association through membership. Remember, membership is dual-purpose because it counts as a gift, supporting Red, White & True efforts and our Membership Scholarship fund. If you’re not a member please join or renew before the event. Payroll deduct is simple to set up!
Our Summer Picnic will have the usual festive flare; plus Core Brewery will be here to showcase their products. Our doors will open at 4:30 p.m. and we’ll wrap-up around 5:45 p.m. As always, someone will win a TV from our friends at Wealth Path Investments, and every member will get this year’s WLAH Houndstooth Clothing Company t-shirt. We’ve already received quite a few RSVP’s so make sure you reserve a spot!
Thank you for all of your tireless work to forward the YOU of A. Stop by so the Alumni Association can acknowledge you in person! Come celebrate with us, and bring your favorite co-worker!
Please RSVP by May 22 at www.arkansasalumni.org/WLAH2014 to make sure you get this year’s T-shirt.
