UNK students are being welcomed back this week with a new Back2School Bash event, which gives incoming freshmen and other Lopers an opportunity to explore campus and the Kearney community before classes begin Monday. A food truck rally at Hilltop Mall, silent disco and disc golf were among activities Tuesday, while paddle boarding at Yanney Park was among Wednesday’s popular offerings.
