Home Alumni Homecoming 2009
this year will be the first weekend of
October. Go to the
Homecoming Page.
The dates are October 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Many of
us Buckner Exes will gather on campus late
Friday afternoon to visit then return for an all
day visitation on Saturday. Saturday evening is
the main event with dinner (usually catered BBQ)
and presentations and prize raffles. Buckner
Exes will return on Sunday morning for a
Memorial Service then Worship Service. We will
have lunch on campus Sunday then spend the
remainder of Sunday hanging out, taking pictures
and remembering those "Glory Days". If you have
never attended a Homecoming, then you are truly
missing out and owe it to yourself to join us.
