MTSU Alumni Relations Plans ‘Summer of Fun’ Activities, Special Discounts

The Middle Tennessee State University Alumni Association is planning a summer of fun for alumni filled with discounts and special events across Nashville and beyond.

From baseball games to summer pickleball clinics, museum visits to arena football nights, there’s something for everyone to enjoy and connect with fellow alumni.

Reservation details, including ticket purchasing sites for the various events, can be found at http://www.mtalumni.com/SummerFun2024.

“We’ve lined up some great activities for our alumni and friends and their families,” said Rachel Helms, MTSU Alumni Relations assistant director. “If you purchase one of our discounted tickets to the Atlanta Braves game on July 22, you are helping to directly support our Alumni Legacy Scholarship. And we’re really excited about the Pickleball clinics at the MTSU Recreation Center.”

Helms credited Beth Dye, assistant director in MTSU Alumni Relations, for working with the Murfreesboro Pickleball Association to line up excellent instructors.

“We expect registration to fill up quickly, so be sure to sign up as soon as you can,” said Helms.
