Whitey Finch - 5/3/06 TENNIS
Tennis @ 10am on BOTH Friday (see below) and Saturday (the PU tennis coaches should be out at the courts on Sat. am). I am thinking of going down to the courts on Sat. morning @ 10 am also, and would be happy to take along any of our classmates who want to hit a few.  Meet at HQ beer keg both days.

Joe McGinity - 4/20/06 - GOLF
Alumni Golf Tournament. Friday, June 2, 2006: William C. Campbell ’45 Alumni Golf Tournament and Betty Donovan Women's Alumnae Golf Tournament. Shotgun start at 8:00 a.m. or 1: 30 p.m. Entry fee is $125 per entry (cash or check only made out to Princeton University) and includes a cart and use of the club facilities, a towel, snacks, beverages and prizes. Handicaps will be sloped. For more information or to reserve a tee-time, contact Sharon at the Golf Office at Princeton University at 609-258- 8549 or shenders@princeton.edu. Sponsored by the Friends of Princeton Golf. Springdale Golf Course.

Next, some questions from McG and answers from Sharon:
1. Can I choose to play at either 8 am or 1:30 pm? YES.
2. What info do you need when I register? Sharon needs your name and handicap. Can I register by email? YES.
3. Can my wife play with me if she isn't an alumnae? YES.

So, we leave the rest to you - Decide when you want to play (8 am or 1:30 pm), and contact Sharon Henderson to register. Go get 'em '61!

Thank you for your patience!
Joe

The outdoor Lenz Tennis Center courts will be open for first come, first serve play. On Saturday, June 3rd the varsity coaches will have refreshments and drinks available from 10:00 a.m. -12:00 p.m. They will try to set up hitting opportunities for fellow alumni who are looking for a game. So, let's decide when to get together for a game. I'm thinking Friday morning might work - say 10 a.m.?  They tell me we can use Dillon Gym to change and shower. We can meet there at 10 and walk down [see next paragraph] to the courts, which are about a ten minute walk, past Baker Rink.  They're not taking reservations but there are supposed to be 32 courts. I'll bring a can of balls.

Joe, that sounds great!! In the past, we met at the beer tap at our reunion site and carried one for the changeover. Also, since we are quite a distance from the courts, we may be able to get a shuttle ride. I think that there will be others (wives, guests, Cookie, Norton) who will want to play and we can set-up matches for everyone and rotate after each set (just a thought). Regards, Whitey

Whitey Finch - 10/17/05
I would like to organize tennis for the 45th reunion (I did this for the 40th and it was a success).

Joe McGinity - 8/17/05
If you're interested in fun and exercise, reunions offers lots of choices! Princeton's tennis facilities are excellent, and court times are easily arranged. Springdale Golf Club, along Alexander Road, hosts an alumni golf tournament on Friday, with T-times usually at 8 a.m. and 1 p.m., shotgun start. The gym's squash and swimming facilities are open for our use, and Lake Carnegie is perfect for walking or jogging. Outdoor Action offers canoeing and kayaking on the lake, and an indoor rock climbing wall.

Saturday morning features the alumni swim meet, lacrosse game, soccer games, squash matches, ultimate frisbee and rugby, not to mention the faculty - alumni forums on many topics of interest, AA meetings and religious services. And our own Jon Hlafter, Campus Architect, will conduct walking tours of campus on Friday and Saturday. Details of all these events and activities will be provided to registrants.
