FRIDAY TICKETS

Additional Info:

The Alumni Foundation is using a new platform (designed for not-for-profit fundraising initiatives) for the purchase of the Friday Event Tickets! All the tickets are listed below with links to the other platform.

Friday – Concurrent Sessions
12:40 pm – 4:15 pm* Departing from the Butterfly Conservatory guests will be taken by Bus to the Niagara Parks Power Station to explore the Tunnel on a 90 minute tour. Afterwards the Bus will bring guests back to the Butterfly Conservatory for another guided tour. Tours concluded by 4 pm Funds go towards supporting Student Awards, Bursaries, and Scholarships. PURCHASE TICKETS HERE
Some of these Awards have been in place since the formation of the Alumni Association and as a result over time are in danger of becoming “Unfunded.”  Your Donation will allow us to continue providing these valued Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards, and hopefully allow us to increase the monetary value to meet today’s needs

 

The Alumni Association Saturday Events can be RSVP’d through the ‘purchase’ of tickets below!
