Please plan to join us for Homecoming 2019, October 25-27 as we celebrate this year's them - Glory Days. Morehouse alumni from all over the world are invited to return to campus for all of the homecoming festivities including special class reunions, the Homecoming parade, Tailgating, step show and of course, the homecoming football game wherein our beloved Maroon Tigers will do battle with the Tigers of Benedict College. Regardless of when you were a student at Morehouse, this will always be your home!
Tailgating remains one of the highlights of the Homecoming Experience for our beloved institutions.
We will do our best to accommodate all placement requests, but cannot guarantee a specific location. The system will close once we reach capacity.
Per our policy, all tailgate hosts will be required to obtain a "one-day" insurance rider to cover the risk associated with your tent rental. Tent prices have increased slightly to ensure that we have proper security, clean-up, tables, fire extinguishers, and restroom facilities for a responsible and enjoyable experience for all guests.
ONE-DAY EVENT INSURANCE COVERAGE (REQUIRED):
Our senior leadership and management team requires all tailgate hosts to provide one-day general liability insurance to protect you, as the tailgate host, and Morehouse College, as the event organizer. We encourage you to consult your home insurance provider or visit www.theeventhelper.com#dcv2Xa to secure your insurance rider separately. Morehouse College must be named as co-insured on your rider.
As in years past, the College will secure all city and state permits required for our one-day Homecoming festival. This is an Alumni Engagement event that will hopefully promote fellowship and giving back to our institutions.
NOTE: GENERAL LIABILITY INSURANCE COVERAGE IS REQUIRED AND MUST BE SUBMITTED BEFORE RETRIEVING TAILGATE or VENDOR CREDENTIALS.
Each year, all registered and approved Alumni Tailgate hosts must also attend a pre-event webinar to review our public safety and tailgating guidelines.
Please be mindful that homecoming is SHINE or RAIN and there are no refunds.
We look forward to seeing you on October 26, 2019!
Sincerely,
Henry M. Goodgame, Jr. '84
