Maren Christensen ’83 wrote in to share that the Dartmouth Club of San Diego recently held a group activity outdoors. Neil Tarzy ’76 and Stuart Yee ’03 planned a hike through Annie’s Canyon in Solana Beach. Annie’s Canyon has slot canyons to explore. Eight alumni ranging from the class of’72 to the class of T5 participated. A local high school junior whose father went to Dartmouth and whose sister is at Dartmouth now also attended. In all, about 16 hikers attended and a great time was had by all. The club will be planning another hike soon!
