ALUMNI WEEKEND
More than 1,500 alumni and friends attended Alumni Weekend in June. It was a special celebration of U of G’s 50th anniversary and 37 class and group reunions. The weekend kicked off with the unveiling of the Gryphon Statue at the corner of Stone Road and Gordon Street. The Conversat Ball was a highlight for alumni, guests and the 100 volunteers who designed and staffed six themed venues. The celebration continued into Sunday with the Alumni Family Picnic.
