SIU Carbondale will celebrate 75 years of Saluki pride during Homecoming Oct. 12–17, bringing concerts, a carnival, a parade and football to campus and the Strip.

The Saluki Carnival Block Party returns Thursday, Oct. 15, at 5 p.m. on Lincoln Drive in front of Pulliam Hall, featuring free admission, carnival rides, games and live entertainment. Food vendors will offer refreshments for purchase.

On Friday, Oct. 16, the Homecoming Music Street Festival begins at 3 p.m. on the Strip with two stages, Spin Doctors, North Mississippi Allstars and more. KYLE will perform at the Homecoming After-Party at 10 p.m.

Saturday’s parade begins at 10 a.m. at East Mill Street, traveling along Illinois Avenue onto campus. Tailgating follows on Saluki Row from noon to 3 p.m., ahead of SIU’s game against Illinois State, televised on ESPNU.

ISO: Independent Property Buyers

I have someone that owns a house in Herrin, IL that is currently being rented out. He does not live around here and is looking for buyers as his last property manager pocketed most of the rent. The home will need a new roof and I’d be available to assist in that as well.

Please send me contact info so I can pass it along.
