Support the restoration of our beloved pond/lake by donating to Millersville University’s Swan Drop!
With a donation you will receive a rubber swan in the event happening at Homecoming 2021.
All swans will be dropped from a crane onto a target on Brooks Field. The swans closest to the center of the target win prizes such as Millersville swag, virtual get-togethers with faculty, the ability to direct critical dollars to Millersville programs and more!
You can also donate to receive personalized pavers to be installed and displayed around the pond. This is a perfect way to memorialize the ways Millersville has impacted you.
