Hello Golden Grads Forever Club members,

It has been such an engaging and memorable year! The year featured several wonderful opportunities to come together, including a special visit to the Raleigh Dairy Heritage Museum with a tour and shared ice cream, as well as a spring outing led by GGFC Board Member Dr. Stafford, featuring a sold-out tour of the Reynolds Coliseum. These moments were just a few of the many ways members were able to connect, explore and enjoy time together this year.

The club also hosted two virtual town halls, including a session with president of the Student Alumni Association, Kylee O’Keefe ’26, who shared updates on student initiatives and thoughtful ways members can support and mentor current students.

Looking ahead, there is excitement for another year of meaningful engagement across the alumni community. Be sure to save the date for Red and White Week taking place Oct. 25-Nov. 1, 2026, where events will be offered for Golden Grads, Post-Career alumni and the class of 1977, continuing opportunities to connect and celebrate together. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Go Pack!
