Move, Reflect, Connect
Celebrate UMD Homecoming with fellow alumni, students, friends, and supporters at an evening of movement, reflection, and Bulldog connection.
Yoga & a Toast to 175!
Thursday, October 8
5:00 - 6:00 PM
Bagley Nature Area | UMD Campus
Registration coming soon!
Join us for a guided yoga session led by staff from the UMD Recreational Sports Outdoor Program outside the Bagley Classroom, followed by a silent, reflective hike to the Bagley overlook. There, we’ll come together for a Global Alumni Toast honoring 175 years of the University of Minnesota and celebrate the alumni, memories, traditions, and connections that bring our community together.
Before We Stretch & Toast
Registration is $5 for alumni and friends and free for UMD students. As a special keepsake, the first 50 registrants will receive a commemorative glass to use during the Global Alumni Toast.
No yoga experience is necessary, and everyone is welcome. Guests are encouraged to bring their own yoga mat or towel. A limited number of yoga mats will be available for those who need one. In the event of inclement weather, a backup location will be shared with registered participants.
Come move, breathe, reconnect, and raise a glass to 175 years of Bulldog pride!
