Special events this weekend

On Sept. 17-18, we begin our year-long celebration of Union Seminary's Bicentennial, with a host of special events.  On Saturday, there is our Convocation at Hampden-Sydney, where the Seminary was originally located.  Then, a cross-country bike ride to Richmond, to symbolize our move to a new campus in 1896.

On Sunday, fun activities are planned in the afternoon on the Quad ... square dancing, face painting, Nutsy the Squirrel, and lots of family games.  The bike-riders will arrive that afternoon.

Also on Sunday, the Library will be open in the afternoon, and Dr. William E. Thompson will be on hand to welcome visitors to our Bicentennial historical exhibit.  There are photo galleries and numerous displays of objects and documents from Union's past.

Come and participate in the Sunday fun!
