Registration will open in February, 2026. Watch your mail and email for more information. In the meantime, you might be interested in the Visit Walla Walla web site, which has a complete list of lodging opportunities as well as things to see and do in the area. If you haven't visited the Walla Walla Valley in a few years, prepare to be surprised by the changes!

In advance of Homecoming, we could use your help with several items:

1. Nominate a classmate for Alumni of the Year. If you know a member of your class--or another honor year class--who has accomplished extraordinary things since graduating from WWU, let us know! You will find the nomination form along with a list of past honorees here. Nominations are due by December 15, 2025, so don't delay!

2. Complete a Class Member Profile. We would love to hear what you have been up to recently. Please share a brief update here. With permission, we may include your profile in the Alumnotes section of Westwind.
