Dartmouth clubs and groups were busy this summer!
Carolyn Choi ’90, co-president of the Dartmouth Club of Oregon, wrote in to share that the club hosted their largest event of the post-Covid-lockdown era, a river cruise on the Willamette River! A few dozen alumni and their families joined, with attendees ranging from classes in the '50s to the 2020s. It was a great opportunity to meet new people and put names to faces. The club hopes to have many more events like this in the future. This fall the club is hosting a class of2026 sendoff party and everyone is excited to meet the newest “future alumni”!
David “Jody” Dietze 78, president ofthe Dartmouth Club of Suburban New Jersey, reported that on July 20 Brian Maher 70 and his wife, Shelley, hosted the club for a wonderful wine tasting. Bill Cunningham 78 organized the tasting tour of the Iberian Peninsula, choosing vintages from Spain and Portugal, which were served along with specialty cheeses, cured meats, crudites, salads, and sushi.
Karen Sprole ’89, president ofthe Dartmouth Association of the Rocky Mountains (DARM) in Denver, shared that the club recently held its annual meeting with awards. It awarded the prestigious Wheelock Award to two alumni for outstanding service to DARM: Al Cook ’62 and Newell Grant ’64. It was a beautiful evening at the Washington Park Boathouse in Denver and the event was well-attended by about 80 people. Club members are looking forward to their upcoming annual picnic, when they send off a new batch of students to Dartmouth.
Alumni in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, recently got together at the house of Alex Muromcew ’85. Liza Millet ’92 helped to organize the event. About 30 alumni—from class of’66 on up—attended. One alum even rode to the event on a motorcycle with his wife and puppy! Everyone had a great time.
Thank you for all you do for Dartmouth alumni! Please send me updates about the great events that you and your club members have organized.
