A big “Thank You” to our UNL Parents Weekend 2012 participants! We had a wonderful group of parents and students who attended and really made the weekend. We work hard to schedule the event and provide some different activity options and do everything we can to make the weekend fun for everyone – but it is the people who attend who really make the difference.
Here are just a few of the comments we received regarding this year’s Parents Weekend:
“Thanks so much for the photo, what a great idea. My husband and I really enjoyed our time at Parent's Weekend, everyone was wonderful.” -Anneliese
“Thanks for a fun and informative weekend” –Gary
“Thank you so much for this wonderful picture - great day & memories” – Nancy
“Laughed out loud with my boys messing with Lil Red. Looks like we've got our 2012 Christmas card photo.” -Lena
“I enjoyed the Saturday morning presentation followed by the stadium tour and seeing and eating at the "training table". I also enjoyed the opportunity to sit in the stadium to watch the game that evening.” – Anonymous
“Very organized. Food was great. Got to see parts of campus may not have otherwise (East campus, Stadium...)” – Anonymous
And, of course, the most attractive feature for UNL Parents Weekend, was the chance to meet other parents and TIME SPENT WITH PARENTS AND THEIR STUDENTS.
So, thank you all for helping make UNL Parents Weekend 2012 amazing!
The UNL Parents Association also wants to take a moment to thank Reshell Ray and the students of Campus NightLife for letting us participate in the football watch party in the Stadium. Your support and collaboration with this opportunity was much appreciated!.
