Day at the Giants!



On Saturday, June 27, 50 DU alumni, friends and family will be heading to AT&T Park to watch the Giants take on the Colorado Rockies.

If you're attending the game, your tickets will be available under your name at will-call, starting around 11 AM.  They will allow you access to the exclusive pregame lunch buffet and hosted bar on the Virgin America Flight Deck (Club Level, 3rd base side behind section 231 and the Club King indoor space).

This event was so popular that we have two blocks of tickets - during the pregame festivities, we'll arrange a 7th inning stretch meet-up location for those who want to trade seats or socialize with other members of the extended DU community.

Upcoming events

Stay tuned for more details on a "bocce and brunch" day in September and a hike and pancake breakfast in October...
