Mountaineer Spring Tour Set for March 28-April 7

BOONE, N.C. — Competitive excellence, major facility enhancements and the new and improved Sun Belt Conference will be among the leading topics during the 2022 Mountaineer Spring Tour, presented by the Mountaineers Athletic Fund.

App State Athletics’ annual spring caravan will be back on the road for the first time since before the COVID pandemic and will make stops in more than six cities across the state of North Carolina.

Cities include Greensboro (March 28), Raleigh (March 28), Winston-Salem (March 29), Hickory (March 29), Asheville (March 30) and Charlotte (April 7). Additional cities and dates will be announced soon.

In addition to lunch and dinner events that feature discounted tickets for Yosef Club members as the organization celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, there will also be an opportunity to enjoy a Mountaineer baseball game at the Hickory Crawdads’ stadium on March 29 – register here.

Featured attendees during the 2022 Mountaineer Spring Tour will include Director of Athletics Doug Gillin, coaches and other members of the App State athletics and alumni association staffs. Guests will be treated to exclusive updates on athletics facility enhancements and more.

“We are excited to get back on the road and visit with our fans and alumni across the state,” Gillin said. “App Nation has proven over and over to be one of the most passionate and loyal fan bases in the country, including when you set the all-time school and Sun Belt football attendance record last fall. We look forward to coming to see YOU and let you know all the great things happening on the mountain. It’s great to be a Mountaineer!”

Guests are asked to register online for events ahead of time. For questions, contact Chase Cross with the Mountaineers Athletic Fund via phone at 828-262-3108 or by email at cr******@ap******.edu.

Space is limited for one of App State Athletics’ most popular events of the year, so fans are encouraged to register early.

Each event will offer easy opportunities to sign up or enhance your Yosef Club membership and purchase 2022 football season tickets.
