JOIN US FOR HOMECOMING AND FALL FESTIVAL – SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26th!
Get ready for an exciting Homecoming at Lancaster Mennonite! Alumni, students, families, and friends are all invited to join us for the exciting activities and events. There will be something for everyone to enjoy!
🎉Homecoming is happening rain or shine today! 🌧☀
☔ So bring your raincoat and an umbrella for a great time together!
⚽🏐🌮🍦 Homecoming athletic outdoor games and food trucks will happen (as long as there is no thunder and lightning), but you can watch the indoor volleyball games if you don’t want to brave the rain!
🎪🎃 Kids activities will continue, and the hayride and corn wagon will depend on how much rain we get.
Thanks for your flexilibility!

Parking
Parking will be limited on Saturday, September 26. In addition to Lancaster Mennonite’s Homecoming & Fall Festival, Servant Stage will be on campus for three performances of Anne of Green Gables, so we will be sharing campus parking lots and expect parking to be very tight.
Please help us make the most of our available parking:
- All areas outlined in red will be available for general Homecoming parking. Vehicles entering from Route 30 should follow the main drive to the southern parking lots near the athletic fields.
- If you are able to walk longer distances: We encourage you to park behind Mennonite Life or in the parking lot above the stadium near the upper soccer fields, both accessible from Millstream Road. This will help us reserve closer parking spaces for those who have difficulty walking longer distances.
- Accessible parking: Handicap/accessible parking is available near the turf field and is marked in orange on the map. These spots can be accessed by entering campus off of Lincoln Highway only.
- Alumni Reception: Alumni attending the reception may park in front of the Alumni Dining Hall. A limited number of spaces will be available there.
- Faculty, staff & those able to walk: We encourage faculty, staff, and others who are willing to park on the back side of Tanger Outlets and walk to campus. This area is marked in yellow on the map.
- Carpooling: If possible, please consider carpooling to help reduce the number of vehicles on campus.
