Letter sent to the Class of 1970:

Dear Class of 1970 Classmates and Friends,

Are you ready and can you believe that we are now approaching our 55th MVNC(U) homecoming year? It would be wonderful to have us all congregate on campus to relive and celebrate our golden status and years. We would love to see as many classmates as possible during this homecoming season.

Homecoming dates and activities just for our class:

Thursday, November 13--Those who travel in from a distance often try to meet for dinner on Thursday evening, time and place to be announced later. This is a class activity, not sponsored by MVNU.

Friday, November 14--Another opportunity to meet and eat for lunch, again not sponsored by the University and time and place will be announced later.

Saturday, November 15, 10 a.m.--Class of 1970 Reunion and Meeting in the President's Dining Room in Hyson Campus Center. Recipients of our Pioneer Class Legacy Endowed Scholarship will be joining us. Class updates will be given and we will have time with guest speaker, Ed Cable, Director of Planned Giving.

Saturday, November 15, 11:30 a.m--Following the reunion/meeting, we will pick up our lunch in the dining hall and return to the Presidential Dining Room for prayer, our meal, and time to visit. The Alumni Office will be sending out info and requesting responses for activities that require tickets. Please keep an eye on the Homecoming website. The registration page and full schedule will be available soon! www.mvnu.edu/homecoming

If you will need hotel accommodations, The Grand Hotel may still have rooms available. Be sure and ask for the MVNU discount (no code needed). Also there is a new Hampton Inn in Mt. Vernon. Some of you have previously stayed in other places. Please feel free to share your recommendations by return email distribution in the near future.

As we are "maturing more rapidly than ever", it's sometimes difficult to make trips to our MVNU homecomings but that's all the more incentive to return to this special year of celebration. Our class is unique and special. I truly hope that you will be able to come this fall to MVNU.

You are all so very loved,

Arlene Blair Hoffman
