reunion2012 A crowd of more than 600 alumni, family and friends didn’t let a rainy Saturday ruin their celebratory spirit for Reunion weekend on June 1–3. The Classes of ’62, ’67 and ’72 gathered Friday for class dinner celebrations as a dozen members of the Class of ’62 united for their 50th reunion and were welcomed as Golden Greyhounds. Saturday’s events were highlighted by the annual Alumni Association Awards Ceremony (see article on p. 29), a family
barbecue at Charlie’s, campus tours, “gym and swim” at the Plourde Recreation Center and the Reunion Mass, celebrated by Fr. Dennis Gallagher, A.A. ’69. That evening, special celebrations were held for the Classes of 1977, ’82, ’87, ’92, ’97, 2002 and ’07. On Sunday, alumni who graduated 50 years ago or more enjoyed the annual Golden Greyhounds brunch. Visit www.assumption.edu/ alumniphotos to view the Reunion photo gallery.
