    UFC INTERCAMPUS DAY

    Wednesday, April 10, 2024, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

    UC Davis Conference Center, 550 Alumni Lane, Davis

    University Farm Circle invites members to join participants from UC Berkeley, UC Merced, and UC Santa Cruz, for a day of celebration, activity, communication, and exchange on the UC Davis Campus. The event marks the 110th Birthday for Davis UFC.

    The site for Intercampus Day is the Welcome Center Conference Center Ballrooms A and B.

    Registration begins at 9:00 a.m. with a continental breakfast, followed by welcoming remarks by UFC President Abbie Morrison and campus leaders.

    The program includes three speakers, who will give presentations, each followed by Q&A sessions:

    • Lois Wolk, former California State Senator
    • Dr. Tierra Smiley-Evans, Chief Veterinary and Scientific Officer for Gorilla Doctors, One Health Institute, UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine
    • Kara Leong, Executive Director, Integrative Center for Alternative Meat and Protein (iCAMP)

    After a box lunch and a brief 110th birthday cake celebration, participants will separate into one of five different tours: (please note, the first two choices are best for those with mobility issues)

    • Tour 1:  Coffee Center Cupping Demonstration in the Conference Center
    • Tour 2:  UC Davis Strawberry Breeding and Research Program in the Conference Center
    • Tour 3:  California National Primate Research Center (shuttle provided)
    • Tour 4:  Gorman Museum of Native American Art (walk)
    • Tour 5:  Walking Tour of Robert Arneson's famous Egghead Sculptures, narrated by Historian Kathryn Olmsted

     It should be an educational and entertaining day for everyone involved!

    Cost: $60

    RESERVATION WINDOW: Thursday February 15, 2024, through Wednesday March 20, 2024

    Parking information will follow – expect a cost of $14. Car pooling is recommended.

    Please Note: Since registration is limited, the fastest way to reserve a spot for this event is to reserve online. UFC members and participants from our sister campuses take priority.

    The Spring Luncheon is historically the highlight of the year - a social gathering to celebrate all the old and new friendships developed over the years through UFC's programs and interest sections.  We welcome all members, but especially encourage Newcomers to share in this very special event.

    The luncheon includes a short business meeting to introduce the new officers for the coming year, a hot and cold buffet, wine, and nonalcoholic drinks.  For entertainment, tables will play a "Heart to Heart" get-to-know-you conversation starter game with questions such as:

    • Name three things you like about yourself.
    • What blows your mind every time you think about it?
    • What's something you can never seem to finish?
    • When you are down, what makes you feel better?
    In such pleasant company, this will be fun and help us get to know each other better.

    Cost: $40

    RESERVATION WINDOW: Thursday February 15, 2024 through Thursday April 25, 2024

    NOTE: Food, toiletries, and other essentials will be collected at the luncheon for The Pantry at UC Davis.  UFC helps keep The Pantry stocked so no UC Davis student misses a meal or lives without necessities.

    • 9051 River Rd, Sacramento

    Scribner Bend Winery is just south of Freeport and across the river from Clarksburg. We will have a tour through the barrel room and meet the winemaker.
