Alumni and student ambassadors are speaking out about Reunion. From travel plans to housing accommodations and kick-off events, Polar Bears are using social media to share their experiences, just follow the hashtag #BowdoinReunion on Twitter or the photo-sharing app Instagram.

This year, reunion participants are also invited to join a social media scavenger hunt. The mission: complete six tasks that include capturing a photo of themselves with the Polar Bear mascot, a long-lost friend and a Bowdoin icon. Finishers can pick up a souvenir at the Welcome Center. On campus this weekend? Join the scavenger hunt.
