Hello and welcome back to our Alumni blog! It’s Hayley here and I have a question… Have you booked to attend this year’s Annual Reunion?
This event is once again set to be an exciting opportunity to return to your place of study and meet up with old friends for a weekend of reminiscing and reconnection. The event will run from Friday, September 7 until Sunday, September 9, with full bed and breakfast available.
You will be able to check in from 2pm onwards on the Friday afternoon, then enjoy full access to the Chester Students’ Union bar throughout the evening.
If you’re a 1968 leaver, there is also a mini reunion for your year group on Friday night. You won’t want to miss this chance to catch up with your former classmates!
Saturday will be another busy day, and include the Alumni Association’s AGM and a Chapel service. A delicious buffet lunch and three-course dinner will also be provided on Saturday (please note these need to be booked and paid for in advance via the booking form too).
Don’t forget that we will be hosting our Tree Dedication Service at 9.45am on Sunday (September 9) as part of our World War One Centenary commemorations. We have planted a variety of trees across our campuses as memorials to our 77 alumni, who were killed during the First World War.
With the city centre only a 10-15 minute walk from campus, you will also be able to have a wander into Chester itself between events and access local amenities. Parking will be available onsite.
You won’t want to miss out on this event, so make sure you book today!
Online booking is now available here.
Or if you would prefer to pay by cheque, you will also have received a paper booking form with your copy of The Cestrian. Please let us know if you did not receive your copy.
Please remember that booking is essential and the closing date is Friday, August 24 – which is when we will be allocating rooms, therefore we cannot accept any late bookings.
