Inspire, Fall/Winter 2008

40 fall/winter 2008 More than 1,000 alumni, friends, and family returned to Cedarville’s campus on October 3–4 to celebrate and reminisce during the 2008 Homecoming. Centered on the theme “The Sky’s the Limit,” the weekend featured hot air balloon rides, a replica of the Wright brothers’ plane, a flyover by the organization CZ, and parachutists landing at the soccer game. Returning graduates and guests took the opportunity to walk through the new Center for Biblical and Theological Studies and interact with the current student body. They also participated in the weekend’s many events, including the homecoming parade, the Prism of Praise concert, An Ideal Husband theatre presentation, and a special performance by Dave Boyer and the Cedarville Jazz Band. “It was exciting to see the entire campus engaged in the homecoming festivities,” shared Jeff Beste ’87, director of alumni relations. “From alumni chapel and concerts to class reunions and sporting events, seeing friends reunited makes for such a fun weekend. I always enjoy reconnecting with people I have not seen in years. For my first homecoming as director, this year was like a big family reunion!” Homecoming 2008 — The Sky’s the Limit a lumni a lbum
