Alumni SummUR Series

The University of Richmond’s Alumni SummUR Series features a dynamic slate of regional events throughout the summer, aimed at fostering connection and camaraderie among Spider alumni of all ages. This year’s programming includes social events that provide exclusive access to city treasures, baseball outings, and meetups at the beach. Events span from June through August, with a mix of casual meet-ups, family-friendly activities, and regional celebrations. Many gatherings are open for registration now, while others will be announced soon. Alumni are encouraged to join the Summer 2025 event invitation list to stay updated through bi-weekly newsletters.

Whether you’re discovering hidden gems in local museums or savoring flavors from the best neighborhood spots, you’ll be doing it alongside fellow alumni who share your Spider pride. Reconnect with your alumni community, explore your city in a new way, and make this a summer to remember—one bite, one exhibit, and one great conversation at a time.
