CSUDH Toro Soccer highlights Friday’s schedule, Oct. 15, as both the men’s and women’s soccer teams compete against San Francisco State. The Men’s Soccer team will play at 1:30 p.m. followed by the Women’s Soccer game at 4 p.m. Both games’ halftime activities will recognize alumni in attendance. Also, the Los Angeles Clippers Fan Patrol will entertain during the men’s game halftime. Following the games, Friday’s events continue with an Alumni Reception at 6:30 p.m. in the Grand Hall of the Loker University Student Union. In the evening, alumni will have special seating at the 8 p.m. opening-night production of “Blues for an Alabama Sky,” the first production of the season by the CSUDH Theater Arts Black Theater Program presented in the University Theatre.

On Saturday, Oct. 16, alumni have two event choices. The day begins with a 10 a.m. – noon registration at the campus Sculpture Garden, adjacent to LaCorte Hall. Although the registration covers a two-hour period, for those alums choosing a “5 on 5 Soccer Tournament,” they will need to be on board for a 10 a.m. starting time. At least one team of alumni - athletes while at CSUDH - is scheduled to participate in the tournament. Also, alums can register for campus tours, to be held from 10 a.m. to noon. The tours are for those who have not recently visited campus and its surroundings.

Saturday afternoon, from 1 – 4 p.m., the “Alumni, Come Home” Family Barbecue will take place in the CSUDH Sculpture Garden Alumni will have a chance to visit with the University and Alumni Association presidents, as well as the deans from all of the colleges and learn about the changes taking place at the University. Also, there will be good food, children’s entertainment, and prizes.

Concluding “Come Home” at 2:30 p.m., the new location of the Alumni Brick Courtyard will be dedicated.
