Due to the dangerous combination of heat and humidity predicted for this Thursday, Aug. 24, Trine University and the City of Angola have postponed the annual Trine Fest to Thursday, Aug. 31.
“With excessive heat in the forecast, we believe it’s best to postpone until the weather returns to a level that allows this celebration to be safe and comfortable for everyone,” said Jennifer LaRose, executive director of camps, conferences and events at Trine. “We look forward to welcoming Trine students and the community to downtown Angola on Aug. 31 to celebrate the start of the school year!”
Community members are invited to join Trine students from 5-8:30 p.m. for the second annual Trine Fest.
The event includes family-friendly events around the Mound, including food trucks, inflatables, carnival games, balloon and caricature artists, and live music.
When their son Parker received his diploma from Trine University President Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., at this year’s May Commencement, it was a full-circle moment for Stephen and Brooke Pelletier.
Golfers and sponsors at Trine University’s 36th annual Alumni and Friends Golf Outing contributed a record amount for student scholarships, raising $115,000 at the Aug. 7 event.
It may sound like all fun and games, but two Trine University faculty members gave academic presentations during North America’s largest board gaming convention.
