Alumni Road Show
R
ecognizing the fact that alumni may be unable to make it back to campus as often as they might like, CFS embarked upon a series of off-campus alumni socials this past spring, beginning with a gathering in New York hosted by Arthur Marcus ’53. The Penn Club was the destination of several dozen CFS alumni and guests on the evening of April 7. Cocktails and hors d’ oeuvres were served as old friends reconnected and new friendships were formed. Headmaster Shreiner provided the assembled audience with some timely campus updates. A series of alumni socials in other cities soon followed. With the leadership and support of alums such as Dale Elks ’74, Bob Graf ’62, Newt Disney ’48, and Robert Slough ’77, alumni receptions were held in Raleigh; Washington, D.C.; Phoenix; and Center City Philadelphia. We hope to continue this practice of hosting off-campus alumni get-togethers in the years to come.
Dale Elks ’74 and wife Kathy served as hosts for the alumni social in Raleigh, N.C., in June 2007 Newt Disney ’48 hosted the October 2007 alumni social in Phoenix, Ariz.
