Homecoming Family Fun with the ISU Outdoor Program

A family-friendly tailgate called Family Fun Fest will be offered on Homecoming Day, Saturday, Oct. 18, across the street from Hancock Stadium.

Sponsored by the ISU Outdoor Program, the Family Fun Fest will have traditional tailgate activities like lawn games, face painting, food and hot beverages, but will also include a campfire, a visit from Reggie Redbird, and kid-friendly outdoor skills taught every half hour by Outdoor Adventure Program volunteers and staff. 

The admission-free event is designed to welcome alumni and community families to campus and will take place at the Outdoor Adventure Rental Center parking lot at 220 N. Main St.  It will begin about 10:30 a.m., right after the Homecoming parade, and will conclude just before the 2 p.m. football game kickoff.

No pre-registration is needed for this event.  Doors open at 10:30AM and families are welcome to come and go as they please.  Some food and beverage will be provided.
