Coronation 48 Weekend

 

A note about Coronation 48 weekend.

Due to the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic, we are hosting an amended coronation weekend experience. We will host as many events as possible this year while still honoring the rich traditions of the UCLSE established and enhanced since its founding in 1978.  We encourage attendees to be vaccinated, and we welcome masks. We hope you will join us in the spirit of community and celebration this year with the hopes of returning to our hotel-based program next year.

Sponsors and Donors

Due to the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic, we could not conduct the usual amount of fundraisers this year for our community charities. Our desire is to be able to donate the most money possible to our charities without using any money from our general fund to produce coronation weekend. Your registration fee is our single source of income. We are also offering individuals, groups, organizations, and businesses the opportunity to make special donations to help us cover general event costs or sponsor specific events.

 

Please click on the "Sponsors and Donors" Link to be taken to this special page to make your donation or sponsorship. Thank you!
