History stands behind us every day. It reminds us who we are, where we come from and what binds us as a nation. Our University days set us on the course of our personal, business, cultural and sporting lives and bind us as one alma mater. Now it is our turn to create futures. We can contribute to creating opportunities rich with possibility and promise for those who are where we were and will be where we are. Support the Forsyth Barr Stadium University Supporters Club and create tomorrow's legacy today.

The Forsyth Barr Stadium University Supporters Club is an exciting new initiative which highlights the fantastic new Stadium in our city, a world class facility which puts Dunedin on the global map as a centre for international sport, culture and the arts. Many of today's top academics, athletes and artists who will compete and perform at the new Stadium are current students, recent graduates and alumni of the University of Otago, continuing the tradition of giving back to the community. Any venue which can boast multiple Rugby World Cup 2011 matches and performances by acclaimed musicians like Sir Elton John shows the spotlight of the world is shining brightly on Dunedin at this very moment. Join the Forsyth Barr Stadium University Supporters Club, and enjoy the benefits of what this new Stadium has to offer, the newest chapter in Dunedin's long and rich history of achievement.

We all say it – uni days were the best days, but when it comes to Otago, it's true. The people, the culture, the activities and of course the sport, everything builds up to shape a great experience alongside the serious job of learning and embarking on life's chosen path. Forsyth Barr Stadium is a fantastic facility for our tertiary institutions; let's all get in behind and support it and help shape what will become an icon in the city of learning. Become a Founding Member today – I have.
