The Big Apple

I was in New York City from Sunday to Tuesday for a fundraising conference as well as our annual New York City alumni event, so graciously hosted each year by Mr. Bill Carey '42 and Mr. Frank Carey '38. We had a record attendance of 60 alumni and friends at the dinner! Again, as I shared after my Florida alumni trip, the passion of the alumni was palpable. The alumni ranged from the classes of 1935 to 1998 and everywhere in between. They shared stories of their Calvert years, asked about teachers, and inquired about the future challenges and opportunities for Calvert. It was a wonderful evening; I am already looking forward to next year's event!
