50th Reunion - SAVE THE DATE: May 13 - May 17, 2028
Yes, it's hard to believe our next Major Reunion at our Rockbound Highland Home will be held in late spring of 2028. While all reunions are special, this one coincides with the graduation of our affiliate Class of 2028, and as such, is held during Graduation Week. It's early and there's not much to report, but Ski did recently send out an email on 2/14/2024 regarding the 50th reunion:
Dear Classmates –
I am overjoyed to announce that Dale Hamby will seek to earn a second Oak Leaf Cluster and will Chair the committee to organize and run our 50th Reunion in 2028. Additionally, Tony Matos who administers our class website at www.usma1978.com will again perform all the communications functions to support us. I am immensely grateful to both of them and we can be confident that our 50th is in steady, capable and experienced hands. Obviously, it’s way too soon to get into specifics but, in response to several inquiries by classmates, I did ask Dale to summarize a general Concept of the Operation as of now.
FROM DALE:
“50th Reunion Thoughts --
Our 50th Reunion will be held at West Point around Graduation Week, sometime in May of 2028. Classmates will be involved in a number of 50th Affiliation Class events leading up to graduation. Since people enjoyed the Marriott in Tarrytown for the 45th, and it has the capacity to hold our entire class, we will look to use it again. Given the additional planning time, it should be possible. We will send out a survey again to see what is of most interest to the class. Some classes use their 50th as an opportunity to do some sightseeing in NYC and in the areas around West Point. We will see if people would like to do that. Some kind of interaction with the class of 2028 would be nice but we will have to have discussions with USCC to see if it would be possible. Overall, look forward to an opportunity to reconnect with old friends and enjoy the camaraderie.
Proud and Great!
Dale"
