Faculty and staff looking for a way to jumpstart their family time together this Thanksgiving weekend now have a free opportunity to do so and cheer on the Mustangs football team at the same time.
All faculty, staff and their families will receive free admission to the Mustangs Family Football Festival set for the Thursday, October 8 game against the York Lions. Kickoff time for the game is 7 p.m. but you’ll want to get there closer to 6 p.m. because there is a whole range of special family activities planned.
Besides free admission to the game there will be a complimentary BBQ, door prizes, children’s games, face painting, contests and much more.
“We really look at this event as an opportunity to build community spirit and support the great tradition of football excellence here at Western, ” says Thérèse Quigley, Director of Sports & Recreation.
“To make this family-focused event a reality Mustang Athletics has received strong support from a number of campus partners.”
Deadline for ordering your free tickets is Monday, October 5 at noon.
