Sunday September 27
Family and
Friends Weekend is usually at the close of UMaine's Winter Carnival Week.
This weekend during Spring Semester is planned to give enough time for
student groups to actively participate and be ready to perform or present
for their visiting family and friends
Please join
us for an exciting and enjoyable Family and Friends Weekend. This weekend
will be filled with entertainment, student performances, athletic events, a
craft fair and much more! We encourage all families to attend, especially
those with first year students. Family and Friends Weekend is a great way to
experience the University of Maine through your student’s eyes
While the
schedule offers a variety of planned activities, there is also time to get
to know what makes UMaine special for your family member. We encourage you
to talk with your student about their UMaine friends and their favorite
places. This would be a good time to visit with your student’s roommates
and their family. If he or she works on campus, Friday afternoon may be a
good time to see where they work. While the dining commons and eateries on
campus are open, this might also be a chance to take your student out for
lunch or dinner at local restaurant.
Check back
at this site regularly, as we will continue to plan additional events. As
you review the schedule please note that some events will require purchased
ticket and are so noted. It would be best to make arrangements ahead for
tickets. A final schedule will be available in print at the Welcome table in
the Memorial Union throughout the weekend.

Please be sure to stop by the Family and
Friends registration table to pick up an updated schedule.
