General Information

Spouses and Guests Welcome

Spouses, partners and guests are invited to all reunion activities and meals. All residence halls are coed during the weekend. Please make your reservation for two if you plan to bring your spouse, partner or a guest.

Reservations and Housing

Alumnae/i will be housed together by class in residence halls. Please remember, residence hall rooms contain only the essentials: made-up beds, towels, soap and drinking glasses. If you have special needs and require a first-floor room, please indicate that at the time you make your reservation.

Children who are 12 and under may stay for free, but you must provide sleeping bags, towels, etc. and this must be indicated on your reservation form.

Reservations must be received in the Office of Alumnae/i Relations and Annual Giving by May 6. After that date, we cannot guarantee housing with classmates. Reservations submitted via the Web or postmarked on or before April 30 save $10 off the registration fee.

Reunion Fees

Reunion fees help to defray costs but do not cover the full expense of the weekend. The registration fee helps to defray the expenses of such things as weekend programs, rentals and entertainment. The housing fee helps defray the expense of linen rentals and laundry services.

Late Arrival

If the registration area in Mary Lyon Hall is closed upon your arrival, please go to Public Safety for assistance. Please note: Public Safety is now located at 30 Taunton Avenue (one block south of Route 123 on Route 140 heading towards Taunton, on the left).

Class Photographs

A photographer will be on hand Saturday to photograph all reunion classes. These will be available for sale and are a great souvenir. Please refer to the reunion program upon your arrival for the time of your class photo. Photo orders must be placed and paid for when the photo is taken.

Recreation

The Evelyn Danzig Haas ‚39 Athletic Center is available for your use. Other recreational opportunities include use of the outdoor tennis courts and the Pappas Fitness Center. Golfers can obtain tee times for Reunion Weekend directly from a number of area courses. Please call the Office of Alumnae/i Relations and Annual Giving for further information about golfing.

Just For Kids

Reunion Camp 2002 will feature a variety of activities, including arts, crafts, swimming, story-telling, outdoor games, nature walks and more. Lunch, snacks and a special barbecue supper will be served.
The program will be offered from 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. on Saturday for children 12 and under, at a fee of $45 per child (a small discount is available for two or more campers). A half-day session is also available.

All campers must be registered by April 30. Due to space limitations, we regret being unable to accommodate those who have not registered in advance. Please help us to adequately staff camp by completing the appropriate spaces on your reservation form. Details will be sent upon receipt of your reservation.

Family Matters

Child care will be provided on Friday from 6:00 - 11:00 p.m. and on Saturday from 5:00 - 11:00 p.m. at a cost of $15 per child per evening. A barbecue supper will be served on Saturday. Pre-registration by April 30 is required.

Meals and Housing

Children 12 and under may eat in the dining rooms and attend reunion activities at no charge. Older children must pay at the same rate as adults. All children must register for meals in order to receive meal tickets.
Children may be housed in residence hall rooms with their parents at no charge if parents provide their own cribs, cots, sleeping bags, etc. Please indicate under „campus housing‰ on your reservation form how many beds your family needs.
