CAIRO REUNION : Coincidentally both of us happened to be visiting Cairo when the OB/OG Association there held their 3rd Annual Reunion on November 7th at the Meridian Hotel, Heliopolis. It was attended by about 195 members who elected 11 Board members and a President (Lamy Mahmoud, Class of 50). We wish them all continued success. And while we much enjoyed meeting with OBs & OGs who we had not seen in decades, and our associates in Egypt always do things on a grandiose scale, we missed that special spirit that characterized our own first reunion in Connecticut.
Incidentally, the OB/OG Association in Egypt counts 550 members, and it continues to grow as it includes graduates from the existing successor Nasr English School.
There are thoughts of a joint reunion combining all 3 Chapters (Egypt, UK, & North America), held every few years. Keep tuned.

ESC KEY CHAINS : They went like hot cakes at our reunion, but we didnt have enough ! We now have some more. Please let us know if you want one. Price is $4.00

OUR NEXT REUNION : Our first reunion last August was a great success !
Ed Yaghdjian (Class of 54) has described the event quite eloquently (copy attached).
Admittedly, the venue at Lady Josephs Sunnyside Farm in Connecticut is a tough act to follow, so put your thinking caps on, let your creative juices flow, and give us your suggestions for the next reunion. Our current thinking is : Time - Fall of 99 (Sept/Oct); Place Somewhere imaginative (eg. Grand Canyon, Las Vegas,etc). Well be addressing this subject in our next Newsletter in February, God willing.
