Don’t be too sure that there’s no such thing as a free lunch. The annual campus community barbecue, set for Wednesday, Sept. 25, in the River Commons, promises food and entertainment from noon to 1:30 p.m. while supplies last.

At the centre of Alumni Week festivities, the celebration promises complimentary burgers and chips with halal and vegetarian options. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own reusable water bottles to refill at the mobile hydration station.

“We’ll have a DJ providing music as well as a busker performing amazing feats of juggling,” says organizer Mona Sleiman, manager of outreach, events, and protocol in the Office of the President. “Come on out and enjoy a mid-week boost.”

Free to students, staff, and faculty, the event will proceed rain or shine in the open space on the west side of Turtle Island Walk. Food and giveaways will be available on a first-come, first-served basis, sponsored by the Office of the President and the University of Windsor Alumni Association.
