Thursday, AUGUST 20, 7:00 pm – 2:00 am at the Texas Union Patio.
Welcome to Texas!!!

Let’s get this semester started right… by celebrating with approximately 14,000 pounds of meat (possible exaggeration) and loads of country dancing! Come meet each other, meet some local Texas students, make some friends, get confused by other people’s accents, and of course, stare in amazement at people actually dressed like cowboys at the Rodeo. What is a “Midnight Rodeo” you ask? … oh you will see, my friend!

As a special perk, you get to meet the whole Planet Longhorn crew! Luckily, the Planet Longhorn crew specializes in answering any questions you might still have about housing, what to do in Austin, why we talk so slowly, metric system conversions (just kidding don’t ask me about that…), or anything really!

We will be holding collection times so that you can pay up for the BBQ (so we don’t go broke in the process of buying insane amounts of meat). The times are listed below:

August 18th, 12-1 PM: Texas Union Theatre (after Exchange Orientation), 1-2 PM: Texas Union Patio
August 19th, 1-2 PM: Texas Union Patio (location given in map on this page)

Don’t miss out on all the fun… make sure to confirm the facebook event AND email us at confirm@planetlonghorn.net in order to secure your spot. They fill up fast so don’t wait around; get out to one of our collection times!

Here are some of the details of the night:

Cost: $12 – gets you all you can eat BBQ and a trip to the Midnight Rodeo

RSVP: by August 17th, 2009, 5 PM. Remember to email us to confirm!

Location: Texas Union Patio…right on campus (just outside the Wendy’s in the Texas Union) where we have collection times. Because it’s on campus, there won’t be any alcohol at the dinner, but don’t worry- you’ll get your fill afterwards!

See ya’ll out there!
