Ed., ‘04) passed on this photo of 16 lifelong friends (15 Alumni) who, in her words, “have reunited annually to re-connect and maintain friendships. We have gathered from our homes every single year without fail. This year, being our tenth anniversary, we took a weekend away from our children (21 future King’s students perhaps?) and reminisced about our Kings experiences, shared stories about our lovely/goofy/ delightful children, and enjoyed each other’s company. The friendships made at King’s are lifelong!” Congratulations on your ten year anniversary of convocation!
