Greetings, Mighty Lynx,
Questions and concerns regarding the fact that the All-Class Luncheon is not being held at the Nile Shrine Center this year are already being expressed. I, too, really like the Nile. To explain, in the fall/winter issue of the Totem II, our Treasurer, Lynne (Moehring) Emmons (’72), reported on the financial issues the All-Class Luncheon had been facing at the Nile due to the escalating prices of the new catering service. The upshot of Lynne’s report was that continuing to hold the Luncheon at the Nile would result in a ticket price of $75 or more per person, which the Luncheon Committee found unacceptable. To ensure that as many alumni as possible can afford to attend the ACL, a change in venue had to be made. Lynne’s column told us to stay tuned for news of the new venue for 2025.
And here we are. The committee did some extensive shopping in the fall for a venue that was both affordable and could seat the number of people that have attended in the past and settled on Aurora Borealis. Co-chairs Linda (Ungar) Strock (’62) and Suzanne (Santwire) Lundquist (’63) visited the establishment, sampled the fare, and spoke extensively with the caterer before making their decision. Based on experience, I trusted their judgement and appreciated their concern for affordability.
Granted, Aurora Borealis ain’t no Nile in terms of ambiance, but what has always made the Luncheon so special is the opportunity to reconnect with friends and classmates over a meal. And this year’s venue includes shuffleboard, foosball, and a quality AV system that will allow you to hear and see the MC, presenters, and slideshow!
However, space limitations allow tables and seating for 224 people. This is a bit of a downside, but approximately that many people attend last year’s event. Even so, you will want to register at your earliest opportunity prior to May 29 to guarantee your spot at a table with classmates. With no room for expansion as we had at the Nile, no payments will be accepted at the door, no exceptions.
I hope this answers any questions you might have. Change can be a challenge in our advancing years, but we’re the Mighty Lynx!
