The ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ’s Army ROTC Color Guard along with the Joint ROTC Color Guard participated in the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Star Lighting Ceremony. The lighting of the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Star on Flagstaff Mountain is a holiday tradition since 1947.

The star lighting is a sponsored event through the City of ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ, the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Chamber and the CU ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Veterans Alumni Association. Each year a new designed holiday card and special vintage of wine is created and sold to support the maintenance of the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Star.
