Alumni Clubs
Alumni Clubs are generally established, both in Kansas and out-of-state, in areas
with more than 200 alumni within a 50-mile radius. They bring K-State alumni and friends
together for social outings, promote K-State and connect alumni to their alma mater.
In-state Alumni Clubs are involved in many events including student recruitment activities.
Out-of-State clubs host a variety of fun community events for K-Staters.

Spirit Clubs
Spirit Clubs are groups of K-State alumni and friends outside of Kansas who gather
for football and basketball Watch Parties.
