Military Appreciation at Arlington Cemetery -SOLD OUT

We would love to have you join us in Ashburn, VA for a very casual evening of Clemson camaraderie! We’ll enjoy hors d’oeuvres and beverages, meet some great local Clemson moms, and assemble care packages for our Clemson students in time for a Valentine’s Day surprise.

Here’s how it works: Once we have a confirmed guest count, each person is asked to bring one item to contribute to the care packages. For example, if we have 15 people joining, then you would bring 15 of one item (Rice Krispies treats, lip balm, ramen noodles, fuzzy socks … you get the idea!) and at the end of the night, you’ll walk away with a box full of goodies that you can mail to your Clemson student(s).

Sounds like fun, right?!

Event details and the final count for the number of items to bring will be emailed two days prior to the event.

Join us for this special lunch time event featuring David Clayton, the Executive Director of the Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research (CU-ICAR).

David will give us a behind the scenes glimpse into how Clemson and CU-ICAR are fundamentally redefining the automotive industry through strategic partnerships and cutting-edge research. We’ll hear about CU-ICAR’s work with autonomous vehicles including a look at Deep Orange, the flagship graduate student program that challenges students to design, engineer, and prototype a completely new concept vehicle in two years, pushing the boundaries of conventional design.

Gather with fellow Tigers to honor Clemson’s fallen heroes who are interred at Arlington National Cemetery. We will gather as a whole group for opening remarks then break into small groups to visit 4-5 grave sites. The group will gather again for closing remarks and a Roll Call performed by Clemson Cadets in the Amphitheater. This part of the event is free to Club members. An optional reception will be held from 11:00am – 1:00pm at the Military Women’s Museum at the entrance to Arlington Cemetery. Food and beverages will be served. Early bird pricing for the reception is $20 for Club members, $30 for non members until Feb 1. After Feb 1, member pricing is $25, non member is $40. Club members may purchase one additional ticket at member pricing.
