A Friday filled with Irish Pride as we enjoy the Pride in the Pit BBQ Contest, Junior Irish Night, Father Ryan Football, Homecoming Court, and our newest Golden Grads.

At Veterans Breakfast, we host veterans in our community to honor their service and sacrifice to our country.
With a delicious breakfast, performances by the Father Ryan Singers and Band, and inspirational speakers, Veterans Breakfast is one of our favorite events of the year.
Breakfast With Santa

Young Alumni Lunch
During Exam Week, college-age alumni, current Seniors, and faculty and staff are invited to the Young Alumni & Senior Lunch. This is a great chance for recent graduates to reconnect with classmates and former teachers while sharing their college experience with Seniors.
Guests enjoy lunch, cookie decorating, and an ugly Christmas sweater contest.
Irish Easter Egg Hunt
The Alumni Association invites all alumni families back to campus for our annual Irish Easter Egg Hunt. With egg hunts divided by age group, special prizes, crafts, face painting, inflatables, food trucks, and photos with the Easter Bunny, it's a wonderful way to celebrate the Easter holiday.
