Class President Message: February 15th, 2008
Dear Army 79 Classmate,
On behalf of the Class of 79 Executive Board, Top of the Line! Our goal continues to be helping classmates by providing more and improved opportunities to network with one another as well as with Army, Navy/Air Force 79 alumni. We had many successes this past year: Class Coins; 79 Cruise; 79 pistol and case; 79 Ring in Space; 79 LIT; Election of Classmate to AOG Board; Emergency Funding Policy; Bruce Fink assistance and much more.
Our Regional Representatives on the Class Executive Board have been a big help in accomplishing more. Here is an overview of the various activities that are currently on-going or recently completed:
Class Gift: Our class voted to fund maintenance for the 79 Climbing Wall! Pat McCarty, Treasurer, is now organizing for our next gift that will be given at the 35th Reunion. Consider joining the $79 Month Club ($79 monthly allotment to Long Grey Line/Class Fund).
30th Reunion: A. J. Yarmie is heading up the Reunion Committee and we are soliciting Reunion Committee volunteers. Additionally, we need to decide when the Reunion will take place. A questionnaire will be coming out shortly to ask your opinions and comments.
Taps: Help write a Memorial article for a deceased classmate. Our Scribe will coordinate the collection of articles for each deceased classmate below. We need someone who knew the classmate to gather, organize and draft an article about his life. Contact Tom Underwood & Jeff Gunzenhauser
West Point Leadership & Ethics Conference (Mar 11): Our class is hosting this important leadership conference for over 35 high schools in Northern Virginia at George Mason University for outstanding juniors. This conference will be the model for other West Point Societies/Classes to emulate. Other classmates (Bruce Bornick & Jeff Olson) are leading efforts in their Societies.
