Huskers Travel to Michigan State – Game Day at Clancy’s – Sep. 25 – Kickoff 4:00 p.m. AZ time

Huskers "N" Arizona

Our Huskers held their own against Oklahoma for much of the game, but penalties and missed field goals cost them the victory. This week our Huskers travel to #20 Michigan State for their first Big Ten conference game. From SaturdayTradition.com, “Michigan State is up to No. 20 on the AP Poll and riding high behind the play of running back Kenneth Walker III. Nebraska remains unranked and continues to do itself in with bad mistakes and sloppy penalties in key moments.”  Let’s hope the Huskers are running on all cylinders this week and can put together a win!

Game day is at one of our original watch-sites, Clancy’s Pizza & Pub in Scottsdale (SW corner of Camelback & Miller). Get there early so you can get one of their gameday-only  Runzas.

                18435 N 31st St, Phoenix, AZ 85032

Cost: $5 per person donation to help with cost of ingredients and beverages.

Do you ever miss good ol’ Nebraska runzas?  We do, so we have booked an experienced Runza maker to teach us all how to make a Runza that tastes and looks just like the original!  Then we will get to eat them, along with “frings” (combination of french fries and onion rings). It will be a backyard pool party, too, so bring your suits and towels if you wish. Beer, Wine and a Go Big Red cocktail will be provided, as well as water, iced tea, and sodas.
 
This is a “Members Only” Event. Fortunately, there is still time to renew or join. RSVP with names of attendees(s), and best number to reach you to confirm, to events@huskersnarizona.com.
 
If you can’t make it, but want to watch, we plan to livestream the runza-making process on our Facebook page

Annual Membership Meeting Saturday, July 31 at 10:00 a.m.  

Huskers "N" Arizona

photo of balloon release

It will be held at Moon Valley Grill at 15414 N. 7 th St, in Phoenix.

If you have already renewed your membership, you can pick up your membership card there. You also can renew that day. All current, new, and renewing members will receive a food ticket and a raffle ticket.  Hope to see you all there!

Please invite your Husker friends who plan to join to come too. We hope to be signing up new and renewing members at the meeting.  Having an annual meeting with our members is an important part of maintaining our non-profit status, so there will be a brief business portion to our meeting.

We are trying a new RSVP method. Moon Valley Grill needs a fairly accurate count to have adequate staff and food on hand to meet our needs.
Click this link to register and reserve your food ticket(s).

“Do I have to go to the meeting to sign up?”

No, you can join or renew on our website at any time.  The sooner you join, the sooner you will get your membership cards. However we had to wait until the watch-site contracts  and game-day schedule were finalized, wait while they get printed , then mail them out, so it will not be immediate.  There is a good chance we will have our membership cards by the meeting.

“ I have paid but haven’t received anything yet, when will I get my card?”

For those who have already joined/renewed this year, we had nothing to send out because we didn’t print a directory last year and the membership cards were obsolete. We are hopeful that we will have our new membership cards by the meeting. Thanks for your patience.
