Family Weekend 2010 dates will be announced soon.
Family Weekend is a great time for family and friends to visit students on campus. Join your student in the classroom and enjoy lunch in the cafeteria. Cheer on the football team, attend a Lycoming College Choir concert, stroll through the quad, take a walking tour of downtown Williamsport, relax on a paddlewheel boat ride down the beautiful Susquehanna River, enjoy live family-friendly entertainment, or watch a family movie on campus. We look forward to having you join us!
