Otterbein’s Annual Homecoming & Family Weekend is one of Otterbein’s most popular weekends of the year. Many alumni, family and friends of Otterbein come together for the weekend full of events.
Kate Machuca who is a senior Allied Health major, has showed up for every Homecoming weekend since she came in as a freshman, “every year my family comes to visit, so we are all able to experience the fun Otterbein’s Homecoming brings,” Machuca said.
Not everyone goes to all the events, but there is something for everyone, “my family and I usually are most excited for the football game and the parade,” Machuca said. The football game following the parade is against an OAC team every year.
Some events throughout the weekend require further registration. To learn more details about all the events happening for the Homecoming and Family Weekend, visit here.
