Gather with past, present, and future Michigan State University Spartans, along with family and friends, for the beloved annual Boston Spartans Summer Picnic!

This energetic outdoor gathering is the perfect opportunity to share East Lansing memories, connect with fellow alumni, meet incoming students, and enjoy a gorgeous summer day in South Boston.

The Boston Spartans will provide entrees, soft drinks, water, and all necessary paper products beneath the designated MSU tent.

To make it a true community feast, attendees are invited to participate potluck-style or pitch in a nominal fee: guests with last names starting with A-L are asked to bring a dessert, while those with last names starting with M-Z are asked to bring a side dish.

Alternatively, you can contribute $6 per person at the event to help cover costs.
