Hello to all ’86ers!
The bonds we forged at Norwich are a permanent part of our lives, connecting us no matter where we are in this world. Norwich is home and all of us are Norwich family. Homecoming (October 14-18) is a great way to reconnect with classmates, teammates, and old friends.
If you have not attended reunions in the past, please join us for our 40th! Being back on The Hill will bring memories forward to laugh, remember, and renew. You can tour the campus and regale in past glories. The University has changed and you will be impressed.
Mark your calendar: Registration will open in early July—see the calendar of events. This year’s homecoming takes place during Vermont’s peak foliage so be sure to make your lodging reservations soon. Our Saturday night class dinner will be at Sugarbush Resort.
Book a room at Sugarbush. Or view other area accommodations here.
Class swag: The Class of ’86 March-on uniform is a Cutter & Buck Soft Shell Jacket. Order yours by September 8 and have it delivered directly to your house in time for Homecoming.
Give back: The reunion committee has elected to help establish an endowment for the Norwich University Peace & War Center, Experiential Learning. This vital center supports hands-on leadership experiences that address the world's most pressing geopolitical challenges; an important and needed program at this time in history. The endowment will help further the Norwich brand and cement our Class of 1986 legacy. There are other options on our giving platform as well. Your gift to any of these funds will help us meet our class goal.
Please contact any of us with questions and if needed, more information.
