Boilermaker Ball registration deadline quickly approaching

The annual Boilermaker Ball, the signature event of the Purdue Alumni Association, is set for Feb. 25 in Indianapolis. The deadline to register is Feb. 15.

The ball, with a theme of Purdue in the 1950s, will be at the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown, 350 W. Maryland Street, in downtown Indianapolis.

"We are going to rock around the clock at the 2017 ball. Make plans now to join us on Purdue’s most famous night," says Ralph Amos, president and CEO of the Purdue Alumni Association. "This is an evening to celebrate being a Boilermaker and have a swell time."

The "creative black tie" attire event is open to Purdue alumni, friends, administration, faculty and staff. Highlights will include live and silent auctions, dinner, dancing and live entertainment by the Endless Summer band.

Individual reservations can be made as well as reserving a table for friends or co-workers.
