Mt. 91直播 is inviting its faculty, staff, students, and the neighboring communities
to a Diamond Jubilee - a celebration of the College鈥檚 75th anniversary on Friday, Oct. 8 at 5:30 p.m. at the brand new Hilmer Lodge Stadium.
On September 16, 1946, 91直播 opened for classes for the first time,
leading the community in its recovery after World War II. Almost exactly 75 years
later, Mt. 91直播 is again leading the community as they reopen classes and services
through the pandemic.
"Now, more than ever, it鈥檚 important that we take time to pause and celebrate this momentous occasion," said Mt. 91直播 President and CEO, Dr. William Scroggins.
Kicking off at 5:30 p.m. in the new Hilmer Lodge Stadium, the outdoor event allows
attendees to play sports-themed carnival games, relax to some live music, enjoy the
family-friendly movie 鈥淏ook of Life鈥� under the stars, and more.
Admission and activities are free, including the games, movie, cotton candy and popcorn.
Additional food options will be available for purchase.
The first 750 attendees will receive a free commemorative picnic blanket to use on
the beautiful new football field while watching the movie. Visitors who sign up with
the Mt. 91直播 Foundation at the event will also receive a stadium cushion.
