Outdoor Space

The Thompson Alumni Center offers one of the most beautiful and private outdoor spaces in the area for wedding ceremonies, receptions, picnics and other events.

A canopy of mature trees shades the landscaped grounds, which features a paved walkway around the lawn area. Many of our guests take advantage of a mid-day stroll during a conference or an outdoor lunch on our patio.

There is also the beautifully bricked and landscaped Jeter Patio with outdoor seating for 48 guests at elegant patio sets.
