1957

In just four short months the Class of 1957 will converge once again on the Hanover Plain to renew old friendships and reacquaint with Dartmouth today. What better way to prepare for reunion than participating in the First Annual Dartmouth Alumni Ski Weekend in Hanover next month on March 6 and 7? A complete package is being offered for lodging at the Hanover Inn on Friday and Saturday nights, dinner Friday and Saturday nights and two days of skiing at the Skiway. The all-inclusive price is $80 per couple, with proportionate reductions for singles and those requiring only one night of lodging. The College hopes to have some races, an evening program Saturday night and generally a convivial atmosphere for all on the slopes and around the hearth. This is a great opportunity to get together in Hanover with your classmates and friends in other classes. The Skiway should provide fun and a challenge for all. Why not get a group together and go? Individual and group reservations may be made by writing Dennis A. Dinan, 203 Crosby Hall, Hanover, New Hampshire, 03755.

At the time of our fifth reunion, a film of the class was put together. The whereabouts of said film are unknown at this time. If anyone knows where the film is, please let us know.
