WESTERN GOVERNORS UNIVERSITY
New England Night Owls Friendsgiving
Join Us for a Night Owl Networking Mixer!
You’re invited to a festive evening of connection and community at the first-ever New England Night Owls Friendsgiving!
On Tuesday, November 18, from 6–8 PM, we’ll gather in the Legacy Room at the One Hundred Club in Portsmouth, NH, to celebrate the season of thankfulness together. This cozy gathering brings together WGU students, alumni, and staff from across New England to enjoy delicious appetizers, seasonal cocktails, and a warm venue that feels more like a friend’s living room than a formal event space
Because let’s be honest—making friends as an adult isn’t always easy, but Friendsgiving is the perfect place to start. And feel free to bring a friend or plus-one to share in the celebration!
Pull up a chair, share a story, and celebrate the season with your Night Owl family.
