K-State Family Day

The 2009 All-University Family Weekend continues a long tradition of honoring K-State friends and family! 

The All- University Family Day allows friends and family to experience first-hand a students’ K-State experience.  Students get the opportunity to share knowledge about the college environment with visitors.

Family Day attendees can tour campus, take a visit to the Konza Prairie, satisfy their taste buds with Call Hall ice-cream, and visit several attractions on campus such as the Insect Zoo and K-State Gardens.

Join in the tradition of celebrating life-long loyalty to K-State by attending the Legacy Pinning Ceremony. Alumni and current students are pinned to honor their choice to attend K-State.  The K-State by Choice recognition is also given out to honor family members who are not alumni of the university. Participants can enjoy a delicious brunch and pledge commitment to the purple and white.

Watch Bill Snyder and his Wildcats take on the Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles and experience the thrill of K-State football victory.  Tickets can be ordered in advance by calling (800) 221-CATS.  Explore Manhattan by stopping in the various retail shops, restaurants, and cafes in Aggieville or tee up a round at Colbert Hills Golf Course.  Don’t forget to visit Varney’s or the K-State Union Bookstore to outfit your family with the newest K-State gear.

If you take pride in your K-State family or someone else’s be sure to nominate them for Family of the Year. It is a great way to honor their support and commitment to the university. Save the date and share in Family Day! There is something for everyone to experience!
