Frequently Asked Questions

Which events do I need to pay to attend?

The only events that have a cost are the Festival Dinner, the Saturday brunch and the sign-making craft. Each event is $5 per attendee, except for Franklin College students and guests under 5 years of age, who are free. Please be sure to register for the events you expect to attend, so we can plan accordingly.

Do I need to pay for my current Franklin College student to attend family weekend?

No. Franklin College students and children under 5 years of age are free of charge.

I can only be there for one day. Can I still attend?

Absolutely! Register for the events you plan to attend so we’ll have an idea of when to expect you.

If I did not select an event on my registration form, but change my mind later, can I still attend?

We ask that you please register for the events you expect to attend so we can plan for space and supplies. If that is not possible – or if your plans change – please let us know when you arrive at check-in. If the event requires an attendance fee (festival dinner, brunch or craft) and if space allows, you can sign up.

I have a question that is not answered in this brochure; whom should I contact?
