Hokie, Hokie, Hokie Hi! Join us for a fun evening filled with Hokies and books! Your family is invited to enter a world of maroon and orange full of great new books and fellow Hokies. Students will be able to meet with VT athletes and get their autographs. There will also be photo booths where students can get all decked out like a Hokie, and parents can snap a picture. Students will be able to enter “Cassell/Castle Collusiem” for a fun time on the inflatable (permission slip required). There will also be face painting, Hokie tattoos, and a Hokie Craft (Hokie Stone). How lucky are we that students will get a chance to meet the HOKIE BIRD? - Parents will definitely want to take a picture of this!!! Plus, Derek and Epcot (VT Therapy dogs) will be here for students to visit and read with.
