Attire
Your Reunion is going to be a fun, casual affair. As far as the weather, it could be hot or cold, dry or rainy—remember, it’s November in Aggieland, so it will most likely be pretty hot! So check the Weather Channel before you leave home, pack accordingly, and then still consider bringing the opposite of what they predicted!
