Dress is casual for all Homecoming events.
Collegeville in late October can be warm and clear or rainy and cold. When packing, keep in mind that during the day it could get as high as mid 60’s, but at night could get as low as mid 40’s.
Guests will have a variety of food to select from! We are welcoming the following food trucks to join us at our tailgate:
Lumbrada Express
Jules Thin Crust Pizza
Guests will be required to pay as they go throughout the day at a variety of local food tucks that best fit their palate. In addition to the food trucks, there will be a complimentary hospitality tent filled with sweet treats. Guests may visit the food trucks as often as they would like.
Homecoming is a rain or shine event. Most activities take place on grassy areas and athletic fields. Brick and concrete walking paths provide access to most of the venues; however, wheelchair and walker access may be difficult in a few areas. Parking at the 9th Avenue lot provides access to an upper and lower brick path which lead to the festivities and games. Golf carts will be circulating around campus parking lots to provide rides for those with limited mobility.
Of course! Take time to get reacquainted with the Ursinus campus during your visit. View our pre-scheduled times and see how much campus has changed in recent years.
