Wheelchair Access For the Banquet
Any guests to the Notre Dame Graduation who require Wheelchair access to the banquet, can be brought onto the ice surface via the Zamboni door, located on the back side of the rink.  Please see Dawn Froats on Friday or Saturday to let her know you are in need of accommodation for your guest.

Storage for Female Grad Gowns for the Banquet
Kenney Hall Classroom K3 (upstairs) will be open with dress racks for the girls to bring their dresses and other requirements for the banquet. If any of the girls have their dress on campus prior to Saturday, they can contact me and we can store it in the locked classroom, to avoid having to transport it back into the city.
 
Road Construction On Highway 6
Currently there is road construction happening on Highway 6 from Regina to Wilcox. Please expect delays and give yourself enough travel time. 

No Alcohol, Drugs or Tobacco On Campus
There will be no alcohol, drugs or Tobacco allowed on campus at anytime during the graduation ceremonies.  We asked that you respect this request. 

After Grad Party(s)
The College or staff are in no way affiliated or participate in any After Graduation Parties that are being held by our students and families. Friday, June 22, following mass, graduates are the sole responsibility of their parents & guardians. 
 
Flowers Arrangements
There are several locations that can create your graduates corsages and boutonnières. For the students who purchased them already through Wascana Flower Shoppe they will be delivered to campus on Saturday, June 22nd and ready for pick up following Commencement.

If you still are in need of a Corsage or Boutonnières, here are a few locations that have created them for our graduates in previous years. However, this is not a requirement for graduation:
