This annual event held on the Texas Tech campus continues to draw more families. The 2002 event served over seven hundred families (mostly Hispanic).

Activities included a Texas Tech fashion show featuring models ages 2-50 modeling Texas Tech apparel, a college fair with over thirty campus representatives, a health fair sponsored by the Texas Tech HSC School of Nursing that included interactive stations for students to explore various fields of medicine, an entertainment stage featuring local cultural talent, a food court, campus bus tours, and a Fiesta Store sponsored by the Hispanic Association of Women where participants were able to purchase school supplies with their Raiders Rojos dollars.

The Raiders Rojos dollars were awarded to all participants for visiting with all the campus representatives. Activities, entertainment and food were free.
