Update: Aiglon Alumni Activities in the time of COVID

Events? Not many. But we look forward to being able to get back to some normalcy soon. Here’s what we’re checking on: Will Sutherland has two pilot cutters, Insta-worthy classic sailboats based in St-Malo, France. He’s trying to organize an alumni cruise in late August or early September. Participants will have the option of sleeping on one of his boats or, if they prefer more privacy and amenities, staying in a hotel. Others may want to bring their own boats. Alas, nothing is firm at this point. For updates and more information go to www.elsleaders/biyc.

Elisabeth van der Grampel normally organizes an Oktoberfest get-together in München/Munich every September. She has informed us that there will NOT be an Oktoberfest get-together this year. We all look forward to 2022.

And we traditionally have several reunions in the United States in the autumn. The Aiglon Alumni Office organizes most of them, the FOAC usually mounts a major event in New York. Those plans, too, are still fluid. We’ll pass on more information as we get it. Meanwhile, don’t forget that the FOAC is still raising money for scholarships. Please help out if you can.

October New York Get-Together

It’s an Event to Remember!* Join us Wednesday October 30 in the Empire State Building at the recently opened Tacombi restaurant, run by Luis Berenbau (Delaware, 1997), for some outstanding Mexican food and drinks.

This is a great opportunity to catch up with fellow Aiglonians and meet some (alumni) parents and spouses. Check out Luis’s taqueria menu here. Executive Director Richard McDonald and newly appointed Director of Development & Alumni Relations Reid Ching are looking forward to welcoming you!

* Okay. It has been brought to our attention that many alums may not get the reference here. So here’s an explanation so everybody will appreciate how clever we are. “An Event to Remember” is a switch on An Affair to Remember, the 1957 movie classic starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. It’s a real tearjerker about a couple who meet on an ocean liner and agree to meet six months later atop the… EMPIRE STATE BUILDING! (Though, admittedly, not to chow down on tacos.) Alas, fate intervenes. Sleepless in Seattle (1993, starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan) was inspired in part by the film.
