Class Luncheon

Posted on by

Why wait for the next reunion? Let’s go informal and get together for lunch! That’s the idea that Tom McGarity came up with and the first was held in June; our third was held earlier this month with a couple dozen in attendance, so it seems to be catching on.

Monthly Luncheon Scheduled

We’re meeting Wednesday, September 11, at 12:30 PM at the Miller’s Ale House located at 1201 Olentangy River Rd (Columbus 43212, just north of Third Avenue). It’s an informal mixer: stand or sit, bar or table, plenty of moving around. Food and/or beverage is your choice. 

Kathy Picl Rosati has been coordinating the last couple luncheons. No RSVP is needed, yet if you do have any questions, you can contact her at rosati.k (at) gmail (dot) com.

We plan to hold these monthly on the second Wednesday, yet locations may vary, so stay tuned each month. If you know of a classmate who is not getting this email, please let us know or have them contact us with his/her email address. And for those of you who live OOO (out-of-Ohio), plan a return visit to be able to meet up us on a second Wednesday. It’s a lot of fun!

Bye, Molly Clifford!
