Remember rushing the field at Memorial Stadium after our EPIC win in Cal vs. USC? Or that annoying roommate who’d always play video games into the wee hours on the desk right next to your slumbering head? (Grrr!!) You know you do! Memories of Cal loom large for us all, so why not get together with your fellow Cal alums to reminisce and help initiate the new generation of Bears into our ranks?
Please join us for our annual fun-filled day in the park with the latest Cal admits, as we trade stories, eat lots of food and prepare them for the awesomeness awaiting them in Berkeley. Tasty grilled fare will be served, including hamburgers, hot dogs, snacks and drinks. We’ll also be tossing around Frisbees and kicking around a soccer ball, just for those of you ex-jocks (let’s show these Michiganders why Cal Ultimate dominates year after year!). The details are…
WHAT: NEW STUDENT WELCOME RECEPTION BBQ
WHEN: July 17, from noon-4 pm (show up anytime!)
WHERE: County Farm Park (Platt Rd entrance), Located at the southwest corner of Washtenaw and Platt
WHO: Fellow Cal alums, new Cal admits and their families
WHY: Because it’s been months since you’ve had the chance to trade college stories with people who get it AND because you want to make sure the incoming freshmen Bears know where it’s at when they get to Berkeley
This event is entirely FREE for all current Cal Alumni Association - Michigan Club members. Membership is just $15 for the whole year and includes many benefits including free access to many of our socials and events. It also makes you an official and vital part of the Cal alumni crew here in Michigan. For non-member alums and guests this event is $5. This is to cover costs, ‘cause you know we gotta treat our little baby Bears before they start their journey out West in Berkeley.
Remember to tell us you’re coming! We’d love to have you and want to be certain to have plenty of food for you when you get here! Please RSVP via e-mail to calalumniofmichigan@yahoo.com or phone at 510.825.5561.
This event is our little Cal tradition away from home in honor of our beloved alma mater. We hope to see you there!
