In 2024, we launched a new offering for cohort members and alumni called “Third Weekend.” Hosted in the 2026 host community, Third Weekend is an alumni-led gathering planned by “third years” that provides:
Third Weekend is open to current cohort members, alumni, their loved ones, and membership program members. The weekend will include RUX curriculum and alumni-led experiences.
This weekend is optional for RUX cohort members and self-pay, though we work with alumni and affiliates to sponsor scholarships and encourage folks to carpool and share rooms & campsites to minimize costs for members. Proceeds from Third Weekend will raise money for the RUX microgrant program.
