A limited block of rooms is reserved for the HT Reunion this year at The Inn at Virginia Tech. Rooms are $499 per night (plus tax and applicable fees) with a two-night minimum. A link to make reservations will be provided in your registration confirmation email.
Tickets for the Miami vs Virginia Tech football game are $50 each using the Highty-Tighties Alumni promotional code when purchased directly through the Athletic Department. The link will be provided in the confirmation email upon registration.
It doesn’t matter if your musical skills have diminished, or if you can no longer play your instrument, all Highty-Tighty alumni are invited to join us. Need to borrow an instrument? You can indicate that on your registration form.
Participation in the homecoming parade and pre-game performance requires proper attire: khaki pants/skirt (no shorts please), white shirt (with VT tie for men), official HT sweater or new HT pullover, and HT hat. Hats are $10 and can be purchased through the registration process.
Registration ends TWO WEEKS prior to HT Reunion on 2 October 2022, so don't wait! Our reunion is a great time for all who have been a part of the regimental band to come together, to march again as a unit, and to continue to share the common experience of the Highty-Tighties.
Please consider a gift to the Highty Tighty Annual Giving Fund. There will be an option to make a gift at check-out for those who would like to contribute.
