FALL

REMINDER: SIGN UP TO ACCESS SERVICE PROJECTS ON VOLUNTEERMARK

All volunteer opportunities are now open to both classes and are on a first-come, first-served basis. We have moved to one calendar on VolunteerMark that everyone will use to sign up for opportunities. This was the overwhelming feedback that volunteer opportunities are a great way to have both classes connect. This also means that opportunities are open “year-round” for everyone, which we will track by program year (Fall: July 1-June 30 and Spring: Feb 1-Jan 31).

Ready to serve? Check out VolunteerMark for a few opportunities that are still in need of volunteers. Check the calendar regularly as new projects are added weekly and look for newsletter announcements or GroupMe to sign-up for projects in which spots still need to be filled.

SPRING

FAMILY BBQ ON JULY 20

As summer starts to heat up let’s all get together for a family friendly backyard barbecue party. Join your fellow Centurions (and their significant others and kiddos!) for a barbecue at Shawn Cross’ home. This casual get together will include a 100 foot slip and slide, bounce house, yard games and smoked meats courtesy of local celeb and Dad Bod BBQ’s own Mark Nuss. We’ll also provide some soft drinks and beers but plan to BYOB drinks, sides, dessert and lawn chairs. Join your fellow Centurions (and their families!) for a summer backyard bash at Casa de Cross!

ALUMNI

CENTURIONS HOMECOMING

We’ve loved our annual Legacy Golf Tournament, but it’s time to do something where all actives, alumni, and guests can come together as one big Centurions family. Centurions Homecoming is your chance to celebrate the impact your class makes on Kansas City and to tap into this big, beautiful network of resources (read: incredible humans) we’ve got at our fingertips. Don’t miss out on attending this inaugural event, which will take place on the evening of Thursday, September 5 at the Mulberry Room in the West Bottoms. This event is hosted by the Centurions Alumni Board. Plus ones are welcome, so get those babysitters lined up now! Register here >>
