Hi All,

Its that time of
year for our alumni reception.  Last week postcards were sent out and a
blast email will be going out next week.  If you are going to attend please
dont forget too send a quick email to maristalumni@marist.edu or call
(845) 575-3283 with the number of attendees (the sooner the better) so the
school can get a proper headcount for food/refreshments.

In order to keep our
positive momentum going from last year's game (34 alumni, 90 family and
friends in total, $3,000+ raised for the team) and to continue to build our alumni base I ask that you make every
effort to attend. In addition
it is crucial that we increase
our donation participation rate.  It doesn't matter if you can only
give $25, its more important that you give something so it shows the
school we have the support of a broader group. (Last years
funds were raised with only a 32% participation rate).  Our goals this year are too have 50+ alumni and 100+
friends and family in total and raise over $5,000.

Let me know if you have any questions and I look
forward to seeing you there.

Regards,Paul Sydlansky ’99
