Homecoming & Alumni Weekend

ONCE A CADET, ALWAYS A CADET

Homecoming & Alumni Weekend is a special time to celebrate what it means to be a Cadet. Each fall, Concordia Lutheran High School welcomes alumni, students, families, and friends back to campus for a weekend full of fun, fellowship, and Cadet pride. Whether you're walking the halls again for the first time in years, cheering under the lights at Zollner, or catching up with old friends, it's a chance to relive favorite memories and create new ones. From the excitement of Friday night football to Sunday’s worship and awards, there’s something for everyone. We hope you’ll join us!


FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2025

5:30–7:00 pm | Alumni Social at Zollner Stadium
Start the weekend by reconnecting with classmates and former teachers at the Alumni Tent on the practice field. Whether it’s been five years or fifty, come swap stories, share laughs, and relive those pre-game memories from your time at CLHS.
Food will be available for purchase. All alumni and their guests are welcome!

 

7:00 pm | Homecoming Football Game
Cheer on the Cadets as they take on the Bishop Luers Knights under the lights at Zollner Stadium! There’s something special about coming back to the stands where so many Friday nights were spent—whether you played, marched, or just soaked it all in with friends. Don’t forget to sport your Cadet gear and celebrate CLHS Homecoming with fellow fans.
