Comedian Bob Marley at Babson Friday night; Road race on Saturday

If you see more activity than usual around Babson College this weekend that’s because it’s the school’s homecoming and reunion weekend.

While the activities are mainly for the Babson crowd, the public is also invited to join in some of the fun, including a comedy show Friday night (Sept. 19) at 930-10:30pm under a big tent on the upper fields. Babson grad Jillian Brooks kicks off the show, with Bob Marley appearing as the headliner. He likes to joke about growing up in Maine. If you don’t happen to be part of the Babson community, just show up at the tent and let them know you’re part of the Wellesley community. (We caught 30 Rock’s Judah Friedlander there last year.)

Other activities include an investment banking conference on Friday and a 5K road race and a kid’s fun run at 11:30am on Saturday.

Fox News Boston got the weekend off to a rousing start with a visit to Babson on Friday morning.
