The Magic House hosts MBU alumni and families for a fun-filled evening

The first ever MBU Family Night took place on Thursday, July 21 at The Magic House in Kirkwood, Mo.

Closing its doors to the general public, the venue was open exclusively to MBU families for the evening.

With a turnout of nearly 400 people, the guest list consisted of MBU alumni and family members of all ages.

The recent event marked the launch of the Spartan Summer Nights series, sponsored by the Missouri Baptist University Alumni Association.

The next free MBU Alumni Night will take place at the Missouri Botanical Garden for the Whitaker Musical Festival on Wednesday, Aug. 3.
