FAQ
When will registration open?
Registration for True Blue Weekend typically opens in early to mid-August prior. Keep
an eye on the True Blue Weekend website and on your email and social media for updates
on events and schedules.
When will the True Blue Weekend schedule be available?
The schedule is available on the True Blue Weekend website in early June and will
be continuously updated over the summer. Each year, approximately 80 to 100 events
take place for alumni and families. Preliminary schedules are released in September,
and updates are added throughout the fall leading up to True Blue Weekend. While schedules
are available at the registration table for campus visitors, the most up-to-date schedule
will always be found on the True Blue Weekend website.
How are True Blue Weekend dates determined?
- Fall is a busy time on F&M’s campus; when selecting a date for True Blue Weekend,
College staff look at the academic calendar, athletic schedules, College ceremonies
and events and more in an attempt to find times that work for the majority of our
alumni and parent audiences.
- F&M is mindful that Rosh Hashanah concludes at sundown on Friday, October 4. Several major True Blue Weekend activities have been moved from Friday to Saturday. There will be special opportunities for our Jewish community to come together on campus to commemorate the holiday and to enjoy Shabbat that evening.
This is my reunion anniversary year; how can I get involved with events for my reunion class?
This October, F&M will celebrate reunion anniversaries for classes ending in 4 and
9. Join fellow Reunion Partners and connect with friends and classmates to help plan
your reunion celebration. To learn more about serving as a reunion volunteer, contact
Director of Alumni and Volunteer Engagement Donna Pflum at dpflum@fandm.edu.
