Don’t be surprised if you see a Blackhawk helicopter landing in the middle of the Pullman campus Friday.

The Washington National Guard is sending the helicopter and crew to WSU for the all-campus picnic, part of the Week of Welcome. The multi-role helicopter was cleared by the university as a static display and will be landing in the center of the Mooberry Track.

It is expected to arrive Friday morning and will remain until cleared for departure later in the day by the WSU Pullman Police Department.
