Allow us to introduce ourselves – we are this year’s Co-Presidents
of the Georgetown Club of Metropolitan New York. We have a history of being quite active in
the Georgetown
community – as undergrads and since graduation.
We are definitely looking forward to the year ahead.
It seems like time passes faster each year, making it hard to
believe that this year’s freshmen are the Class of 2014. Although many of us spent time on the Hilltop
some years ago, Georgetown
is often on our minds and always in our hearts.
Good news - the Hoya community is more active than ever before, right
here in New York City!
The start of a new school year often encourages reflection on
the year before. As a Club, we’ve been
quite busy this past year – our membership grew and as a result, we were able
to offer more programs and events than ever before. Thank you for helping to make that possible.
Our website, www.nyhoyas.com,
continues to be our most important resource.
It’s the best way for you to learn about upcoming events and it’s a
great tool for us to keep track of NYC-area Hoyas and keep in touch with each
of you. Since the launch of the new
website 2 years ago, we have seen a significant increase in membership – we
hope that will continue this year. And
of course, don’t forget to pay your annual dues!
Although we are
pursuing many new endeavors, we are staying true to our NY Hoya traditions:
hosting food and drink tastings, museum tours, academic lectures, theater
nights, Hoya basketball game-watches and more.
We are, again, very excited to celebrate the 7th Annual Homecoming in
New York Gala. We’re partnering with the
Wall Street Alliance and the Georgetown Entertainment
& Media Alliance to make this year’s gala one of a kind. With new sponsors, an amazing new venue (Gotham
Hall) and a move to Friday night, we strongly believe this year’s gala will
be the best yet! We encourage you to get
your tickets early, as the event is sure to sell out quickly.
We hope you are as
excited about this year as we are - we encourage you to join the Club and enjoy
all it has to offer! Club members receive discounted prices on Club events,
invitations to members-only events, and advanced email notification of events
with limited registration.
Please visit www.nyhoyas.com
to stay on top of the Club’s upcoming events and to become a member, if you
aren’t one already.
Thank you and we look
forward to seeing you over this exciting year!
HOYA SAXA!
