📸 60 YEARS OF LEADERSHIP: 1966 → 2026

Waubonsee’s current Board of Trustees is figuratively holding up the legacy of the inaugural Board of Trustees of 1966 . . . while literally holding up their photo!

On August 22, 1966, Waubonsee’s first Board of Trustees held its first meeting, helping to lay the foundation for the college we know today. Exactly 60 years later, we will commemorate that historic milestone with our community at Waubonsee’s 60th Anniversary Celebration!

📅 Saturday, August 22, 2026
⏰ 4–8 p.m.
📍 Sugar Grove Campus

Join us for a family-friendly afternoon featuring live music 🎶, free lemonade and popcorn 🍋🍿, food trucks, 100+ vintage cars at Cruise Night 🚘, a Children’s Zone with a petting zoo and tons of activities 🐐, an Alumni Tent with free alumni T-shirts, and plenty of giveaways!
