“Surfin’ Safari” is the theme of this year’s Welcome Day to be held on Wednesday, Sept. 21, at Linn-Benton Community College beginning at 10 a.m. in the Russell Tripp Performance Center theater located in Takena Hall, Albany campus. The second annual event is a chance for new and returning students to learn about all the college has to offer this school year. The festivities begin with a kickoff in the theater featuring LBCC’s award-winning choirs “The Sirens” and “Blue Light Special,” a welcome by LBCC President Greg Hamann and a reading by LBCC Poet Laureate Ruth Krueger. After the kickoff, more than three-dozen campus groups and community organizations will have displays in the courtyard quad offering ways for students to get involved. Students are eligible to win prizes, including tuition credits and bookstore gift certificates as well as a chance to win a 60-second shopping spree from the bookstore and a TI-84 graphing calculator valued at approximately $100.
