President's Letter
HOLIDAYS 2024
I hope this letter finds you and your family in good health and spirits.
A quick note to wish you and your family a warm and wonderful holiday period and a healthy and happy New Year.
Reflecting on 2024, it was an active year for the class:
- Our webinar series continues to engage classmates. In fact, over 50 spouses requested and received webinar invitations.
- The Library of Remembrance, containing essays by 84 classmates reflecting on their military (and other) activities post-graduation, was distributed.
- The Washington mini-reunion was the best ever. The 94 participants enjoyed two full days of events and interaction (see photo below).
Looking forward, our on-going webinar series will feature a special 67th Day session in March commemorating the 60th anniversary of the 1965 Final Four. Bill Bradley'65 will share some history and personal thoughts.
As is traditional, on Alumni Day, February 22, the Service of Remembrance will be held in the Chapel. We have 13 to be memorialized: Will Shaw, Sonny Rouse, Lee Mercier, Larry Lucchino, Karl Hummel, Phil Handy, Jim Dimond, Virgil Cummins, Jim Clegg, Mike Bewley, Leonard Averill, Don Anderson and Bill Beale.
All of our efforts are aimed at providing an opportunity for you to engage with classmates. We continue to search for innovative and creative ways in this new world of technology to make communication easy and productive. While virtual meetings continue among many affinity groups, you are encouraged to gather in-person whenever convenient. In fact, celebrating an 80th birthday is as good a reason as any.
As we move into 2025, let us continue to enjoy each other.
