The festivities will begin at 5:30 at Upper Deck Sports Grill in downtown Scottsdale.  We’ll raffle off some IU gear and hopefully witness a Hoosiers victory!

John will share some of his experiences at halftime of the game.  If you only attend one watch party this year…make it this one!

Several volunteers are needed to help check in and distribute badges for the upcoming reception with IU President Michael A. McRobbie.  This is a great opportunity to interact with fellow alumni and represent the Phoenix chapter.

Please RSVP to iuaaphoenix@alumni.iu.edu if you can help.
