Still reflecting on Homecoming and Family Weekend! 📸
What an incredible weekend we have had celebrating Homecoming with everyone who joined us.
Once a Pioneer, always a Pioneer! 🔴🔵
Homecoming 2026 is here, and we’ve been enjoying the celebration with our Pioneers throughout the generations! 🔴🔵
Day one of Homecoming Weekend was packed with fun events that cultivate Malone traditions and Christ’s presence on our campus. Some of these events included our morning Shabbat (a spiritual retreat for ministry leaders), a special Homecoming Community Worship service, a luncheon celebrating our Golden Pioneers, a trip down memory lane with our Campus Throwback Tour, and our Alumni Awards Banquet.
Also new to our lineup this year is a special appearance from Maxamoose, hosting his own event, Maxamoose’s Mega Ball Drop! 🫎⛳
The big reveal is here! We had a great time welcoming Maxamoose officially as a part of our Malone community. 🫎
Max is back, and he’s here to stay! 🔴🔵
We cranked up Rush to the “Max” this year by inviting some local friends to help us welcome Maxamoose home! We also launched Max’s signature ice cream flavor, “Max’s Cookie Crush,” courtesy of @2_scoopzcanton here in Canton. 🫎🍦
Our students also enjoyed an evening of connecting with different campus clubs and organizations, and discovering how campus involvement can be part of the bigger picture and purpose at Malone.
Back with a new look, but still the same old character we all know and love, Max will be making his debut soon! 🫎
Rush, THIS WEDNESDAY, be there Pioneers to see the moose on the loose! 🔴🔵
