ESU’s 2023 Homecoming Week will occur from Oct. 2-5, and end with a culmination of events on the Oct. 6-7 weekend. 

Plenty of fun events are being held to bring together the campus community during the week, such as the annual bonfire, sporting events and exclusive alumni events. 

The following celebrations are all in accordance with the official ESU schedule.

The celebrations will begin on Oct. 2 with social media T-Shirt giveaways and “Paint the Town,” a window painting competition for local Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg Businesses. Both of these events will last throughout the week. Other events, such as the Pink Light Walk and Warrior Madness will also happen throughout the week. 

For Homecoming weekend, however, there will be many more events taking place on campus for students to celebrate and take part it. 

On Friday, Oct. 6 there will be a volleyball game between ESU and Shippensburg University, followed by the annual Homecoming bonfire from 8-10 p.m. 

Saturday, Oct. 6 will be the final schedule of events for the weekend, including a pride alumni mixer, a soccer and volleyball game, and the ESU black out football game from 6:00-9:00.
