HAYS, Kan. – The unseasonably cold weather has forced the change of locations for two of Fort Hays State University’s Homecoming events.

Today’s pep rally scheduled for 7:30 p.m. is still on, but it has been moved indoors to Gross Memorial Coliseum. The bonfire has been canceled because of high winds.

Friday’s rededication program at the Plymouth Schoolhouse has been moved to Forsyth Library. The program will begin at 10 a.m., then will move to the Plymouth Schoolhouse for a reception as originally planned.

The schoolhouse, celebrating its 40th anniversary on the FHSU campus, will be open to the public from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday.

Tonight’s pep rally will feature remarks from FHSU President Tisa Mason and Head Football Coach Chris Brown and introductions of Tiger athletes, the Homecoming royalty and the Alumni Award recipients. There will also be performances by the FHSU marching band, cheer squad and Tiger Debs dance squad.

The Local Food Truck will be set up near Gate 2 of GMC, serving burgers, brats, bierocks and drinks.
