This annual SNRE tradition during Homecoming Week traces its roots to the school's early "field days" in 1906. The gathering for students, faculty, staff, alumni and their families features good food, music, beverages (sorry, non-alcoholic) and competitive fun. Refreshments include sandwich wraps, pasta salad, chips, hot apple cider and muffins. Planned events/fun include wader races, log sawing competition and pumpkin carving for the kids.

Friday, Sept. 25, 5-10 p.m., Saginaw Forest
