MURFREESBORO — The
annual Pigskin Pre-Game will once again kick off the MTSU Blue Raiders football
season for alumni and friends of the university.
A fundraiser for the Alumni Legacy Scholarship, the event
will begin at 6 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 27, at The Grove at Williamson Place, 3250
Wilkinson Pike, just off Medical Center Parkway across from Embassy Suites
Hilton near Interstate 24.
“Pigskin Pre-Game is a great fundraising event for a great
cause, the Alumni Legacy Scholarship awarded to children or grandchildren of
MTSU alumni,” said Paul Wydra, an MTSU Alumni Relations assistant director.
“We have awarded almost $50,000 in scholarships during the
last five years, largely because of the support we receive from the community,
our terrific sponsors and the MTSU faculty and staff for events like Pigskin
Pre-Game every year,” Wydra added.
The increasingly popular craft beer breweries will be there
to add to the evening’s festivities, Wydra said.
Tickets for the event will be $35 for adults. Children 12
and under are free. Those planning to attend must prepay and RSVP by 4:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Aug. 24, to secure the ticket.
