UCI campus community, student prospects celebrate

It’s nothing but good times at UCI this weekend when the school hosts its 30th anniversary Celebrate UCI all day Saturday at Aldrich Park.

The school’s oldest tradition gives students, faculty and alumni a chance to enjoy what UCI has to offer while entertaining prospective students.

From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. the Waygoose Medieval Faire will have booths, foods, games and displays. Three stages will host musical acts and student performances.

Starting just before the fair will be an Earth Day celebration from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., also at Aldrich Park. The UCI Center for Service in Action will have educational booths, eco-friendly vendors and community challenges geared toward environmentalism. The UCI classic car show from 10 a.m to 3 p.m. at Aldrich Park will feature hot rods, antique vehicles and imports, some worth more than $3 million.

The Claire Trevor School of the Arts will showcase events from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. from its various programs.
