Your official welcome to Lakehead University! Gather with other incoming students and listen to a welcome address will be made by Lakehead University Orillia's interim Principal, Dr. Linda Rodenburg. Directly after the Lakehead Welcome you can join the Orillia community for a night full of fun, s’mores, music and more!

 Family, friends, and supporters are welcome to attend.

Join us at our Faculty and Program Meet & Greet to meet some of the faculty and staff members of your program, as well as the peers you'll be learning with. At Lakehead we offer many services to students and you will be able to learn about what academic support services are offered to help you succeed in your program. Take part in our connector bingo card created to help you meet your staff, peers, and student services, and have your chance to win some great prizes. During the Meet & Greet, light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
