Golden Graduate Reunion 2026 | June 5-7, 2026

Fort Lewis College welcomes alumni from the class of 1976 and earlier to a memorable weekend of connection and celebration. Join us for a weekend of nostalgia and fun as we revisit all the best that Durango and our college offer.

You are invited to our 50-year Golden Graduates Reunion June 5-7, 2026 at the Fort Lewis College campus in Durango. Join us to welcome back the class of 1976 as well as any classmates who graduated 50+ years ago. This special event is a wonderful opportunity for you to reconnect with your alma mater, reminisce about cherished memories, celebrate the milestones of your journey since graduation, and learn about all of the exciting things happening on campus.  

What can attendees look forward to? Friday will include a welcome lunch, campus tours, and a special museum exhibit with archival Class of 1976 items from the Center of Southwest Studies. We’ll end the day on the beautiful chapel lawn overlooking Durango and the La Plata Mountains to enjoy heavy appetizers, drinks, storytelling, and plenty of social time to connect with your fellow alumni.  

Saturday includes a train ride on the world-famous Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad to Cascade Canyon and an optional post train happy hour. Join us for coffee and a light breakfast on Sunday morning before you depart.  

Traveling from out of town to attend this year's Golden Graduate Reunion? We can offer a special rate at a Durango hotel. Please email the alumni office at alumni@fortlewis.edu to learn more.
