Busy Friday for Reunion Weekend Guests

McDonogh alumni were kept as busy as the students on Friday of Reunion Weekend, April 28. The morning began with young alumni speaking to students about their career paths, while older guests enjoyed campus tours. After lunch and a State of the School address by Headmaster Charlie Britton, a handful of alumni went to Roots where industrious lower schoolers were making newspaper pots for basil they’d grown from seed. Later, McDonogh tennis legends took on current players in a friendly match. A memorial service in Tagart Memorial Chapel and a flag retreat ceremony on the Senior Quadrangle rounded out the afternoon events. Before the annual Alumni Cocktail Party, four young alumni were presented with the Young Alumni Award. They are: Stephen Garten ’04, Paige Kennedy ’11, Christopher Nelson ’04, and Tamara Newcomer-Johnson ’03.
