This year marks 50 years since we graduated from PLU! Our 50th reunion will be on campus Friday, October 4, 2024. We have a walking tour and informal gathering at Farrelli’s before the reunion. On Saturday gather to watch the football game, see the musical and/or attend PLU on Tap. On Sunday we hope you can join us for the Golden Club Brunch which follows Sunday Worship at Trinity Lutheran. We have a great line-up of events that will give you many opportunities to reconnect, reminisce, and create new memories. We hope you can join us.
