East Stroudsburg University invites community members to campus for its annual Family Weekend activities, Friday, September 15 and Saturday, September 16. The weekend is designed to bring campus and community together and introduce students’ family members to the campus and surrounding Pocono Mountains region. Families can learn more about their students’ lives at ESU, as well as participate in fun events held by ESU and the local community.
The weekend will host events on campus for all ages and interests. Legacy families are invited to a breakfast reception on the Main Quad with President Kenneth Long for the annual Pinning Ceremony and their induction into the ESU Legacy Program while first generation families are invited to spend time getting to know the campus and surrounding communities. A friendly game of Family Feud will kick off the celebratory weekend on Friday evening. Saturday offers the Schisler Museum tours, ESU Volleyball, Football, and Soccer, the Warrior Bash will have sand art, stuff-a-plush, baby goats and more, and ESU’s Family Amazing Race Experience will have families competing around campus. The weekend will end with the Pocono Latin Fest.
