Family Weekend

Family Weekend is for all proud GC Families not just those families in the GC Family Association

October 4-5, 2008

Are you missing your son or daughter? Is it too quiet around the house with him/her away at school? This is your opportunity to come and visit with your Georgetown College student!

Since this weekend is also Festival of the Horse, visiting families for Family Weekend coming from I-75 will need to turn left onto Military and then onto College Street to get to the Student Center. Those families coming from US 25, will need to turn right onto College Street.

Main Street and Memorial Drive will be closed during Festival of the Horse on Saturday, October 4th. Families can park next to Anderson Hall, Knight Hall or the Bush Center for Fitness.
