There Really Is No Place Like Homecoming
Each year Georgetown College alumni and friends from all generations and backgrounds come together to celebrate Homecoming. It’s a time for rekindling lifelong friendships, continuing traditions, and joyfully celebrating what connects us all: a love for Georgetown College.
When the College decided to cancel Homecoming 2020 in order to best protect our alumni and friends, college officials were hopeful that Homecoming 2021 would be bigger and better than ever. They were certainly right, and a Tiger football victory only added to the jubilant atmosphere.
The weekend kicked off on Thursday afternoon when the Heart & Mind Tour stopped at Keeneland. Alumni and friends of Georgetown College reconnected and reminisced in the beautiful Keeneland Room, which featured a gorgeous view of the entire racetrack. A few alumni may have even walked away on the plus side.
On Saturday the College celebrated with many of its timeless traditions such as: Greek Life brunches and circle ups, the Diversity Brunch, Golden Agers, tailgating, a faculty meet and greet, and several others. By the time the Tigers took the field, a victory was in the air.
Inspired by the reunions of three national championship winning teams from 1991, 2000, and 2001, the Tigers exploded in the second half to claim a 27-17 victory over Thomas More.
Enjoy some highlights from a wonderful weekend and consider helping us make Homecoming Weekend 2022 even bigger and better than this one.
