January/February 2014. The Class Connections (’67s connecting with ’17s) activities went very well. Between August 27 to September 8, 35 classmates and partners greeted groups of ‘17s at the Second College Grant. Robert Piampiano, Bill Judd, Dave Sides, and Win Johnson acted as crew leaders sharing Dartmouth traditions (including singing the Alma Mater) After matriculation on September 15, the ‘17s went by a tent staffed by Joyce and Paul Killebrew, Susan and John Manaras, Bill Sjogren, and Jim Coakley; additional welcoming gifts were provided including a 2017 pin. At the inauguration of President Hanlon ‘77, ‘17s were greeted at the Community Picnic table manned by Sam Ostrow, Rob Kugler, Bill Bogardus, Bill Judd, Ed Kern, and other ‘67s. Good connections. Gerry Hills '68 invites alumni and guests to the second Virgin Island Flotilla (Return of the Green) to sail May 11-20, 2014. Contact Gerry at stjohncaptain@aol.com if interested.

Rosanne and John Lobitz road tripped from Denver, Colorado to the Adirondacks visiting family and classmates. In Shelburne, Vermont, John visited with Buzz Land, played some golf, and reminisced. Next stop was at Steve Cheheyl’s on Lake Sunapee, New Hampshire for golf with Larry Langford and Paul Killebrew. Moving down to South Glastonbury, Connecticut John stayed with David “Okie” O’Conner; good time catching up. Next stops were Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, then to Cincinnati, Ohio meeting up with Steve Landa for more golf. It was a wonderful trip reconnecting with friends. John is a gastroenterologist. His last remarks were: “I have been accused of ‘looking up my old friends’ and yes I do.” Unfortunately I have more obituaries.
