There are lots of activities to help renew your ties to WVU friends and families this summer while we wait for the fall sports season to kick off, so why not get out to one or more of them? You'll finds old friends, make new ones, and help support West Virginia University. What more, short of a football game, could you ask for?
Many alumni activities are listed on the Association's web page, but there are a couple that we'd like to draw your attention to.
