In accordance with the Lake Land College Return to Campus Plan, state and local guidelines, the alumni association’s Celebrate Lake Land event has been cancelled.

Originally scheduled for Sept. 26, the event was going to incorporate a car show and several activities for families. Although the event is cancelled due to the pandemic, the alumni association will move forward with plans to announce the newest inductees of the Lake Land College Distinguished Alumni Society.

In addition, planning for next year is already in progress due to the generosity of this year’s event sponsor, SC3F Wealth Management Group. The organization is allowing the alumni association to set the funds in reserve and use them next year.

“We plan to use those funds to make next year’s event even bigger and better. We are grateful to SC3F Wealth Management Group for providing us with this option,” Danielle Downs, advisor in financial aid and veteran services as well as the celebration committee chair, said.

Past fall events have included an athletic reunion at a Laker volleyball game, a dance, a car show and a concert. Students and college faculty and staff were also a part of the festivities with various activities and competitions scheduled throughout the week.

“Even though we’re not able to have this celebration right now, we’re still here for the community and the students,” Downs said. “We, as the Lake Land community, will come back from this even stronger and better.”
