Axe ’Em, Jacks!
NACOGDOCHES, Texas –– Stephen F. Austin State University’s Student Engagement office invites local alumni and Nacogdoches community members to assist in building the foundation of the annual SFA Homecoming bonfire from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 12, at the Intramural Fields.
The Homecoming bonfire will be lit the night of Oct. 25. More Homecoming details, including the full schedule and details on the concert headliner, will be released at a future date.
“The bonfire is an opportunity to see the Lumberjack spirit grow and be built upon throughout the weeks prior to celebration,” said Amanda West, assistant director of Student Engagement. “This year, we are asking alumni and friends of SFA to build the foundation. The following weekend, the current student body will complete the structure for us all to celebrate on Oct. 25.”
The event is open for all ages and volunteers are asked to wear closed toe shoes, but all building materials will be provided. For bonfire safety tips, visit gosfa.com/bonfiresafety.
Volunteers can park alongside Wilson Drive or at Pecan Park near the Intramural Fields. For more information, contact West at Amanda.West@sfasu.edu.
