Fireworks will cap a full day of activities in conjunction with Vanderbilt's Black and Gold Spring Game, scheduled Sunday, April 17 on campus.

The fireworks show is scheduled immediately after first-year Commodore Head Coach James Franklin puts his squad through the program's first intrasquad spring game in more than a decade.

Admission to the Black and Gold Spring Game - and all associated activities - is free. The donation of a children's book to the Books from Birth program is encouraged. The game will kickoff at 6 p.m. CT.

A number of promotions are aimed at a large student turnout:

• The first 300 students in attendance will receive a free t-shirt
• At halftime, there will be a sorority flag football game including Alpha Omicron Pi, Kappa Alpha Theta, Pi Beta Phi and Chi Omega.
• The sorority with the most members in attendance at the game will receive a Nintendo Wii. The fraternity with the most members in attendance will receive an Xbox.

An array of other activities in the vicinity of Vanderbilt Stadium will accompany the intrasquad encounter that effectively concludes the team's spring practices, including tailgating, Vandyville - with its assortment of kids and family activities - and player autograph sessions.

Fans wanting to tailgate can use surface parking lots 1, 1A, 2 and 4, with all opening at 12 p.m.

Vandyville, the popular gameday tailgating location along Natchez Trace, opens three hours prior to the game. Live music, inflatable games for kids and fan contests will be among the attractions in Vandyville.

A special autograph session with current Commodore players also will start at 3 p.m.
