May 1, 2010 Saturday
Game Day Choose your match and position. On the sidelines, a touch match, an old boys match, or an alumni against the "B" side. Playing or chatting off the touch line, this will be a grand and sunny day. Official photos will be taken. We have two fields ready. Purdue "A" and Indiana University will play as will Purdue way over 35 against IU.
Saturday night Party at the Conservation Club on Wildcat Creek - Beer, food, singing and debauchery, (or just good clean fun if you prefer). You will feel like you played by the end of the night even if your last match was in 1980.
May 2, Sunday morning.
Say your fond farewells and find out what happened at 2:00 a.m. at a revolving Bloody Mary Breakfast at Harry's Chocolate Shoppe. Say farewell to old friends and new and resolve to meet again in 2020.
