Reunion 2015 draws big crowd

June 1, 2015

Bright sunshine and sparkling rain showers alternated to keep Reunion-goers on their toes Thursday-Sunday, May 28-30. The popular spring weekend brought back more than 700 alumni from class years ending in 5 or 0. With families and others, some 1,000 visitors flocked to Skidmore and Saratoga Springs. 

Along with informal socializing by class and across generations, the weekend featured group discussions and faculty seminars, guided tours of the current and former campuses, a golf tourney, the honoring of nine alumni award winners and the celebration of reunion-class gifts to alma mater, picnicking and class dinners, class photos, dancing, and fireworks.
