Upcoming Event
- Seton Keough Alumnae Association Kick-off on Fri., June 1: Over the next couple weeks, SKHS graduates should be on the lookout for an invitation arriving at your home for the Seton Keough Alumnae Association’s 1st annual “Girls’ Night Out” scheduled for June 1, 2007 from 6-8 p.m. in the school’s courtyard. This event will officially launch the Seton Keough Alumnae Association and will
bring together alumnae from
all Seton Keough classes —
from 1989 to 2007. The casual
tone of the event — with a
reunion feel — will provide the
perfect atmosphere for alumnae
to see the school again, reconnect
and reminisce with old friends,
and maybe even make new ones.
In addition, you will be able
to learn about association
membership, upcoming events,
and how you can get involved.
Raffles will round out the
fun, so bring some extra cash
to enter to win! Cost for the event is $10 per alumna. Can’t wait for the mailman to bring your invitation? Click here for more information and a registration form. Do you or someone you know have an item or service that could be donated for tstone@setonkeough.com or 410-646-4444 ext. 1216. Have questions? Contact Tracey with those as well. Hope to see you there!

Alumnae Association Membership
Are you a member of your alumnae association? If not, well now’s the time to
join! The Seton Alumnae Association
has been in existence for many,
many years while the Archbishop
Keough Alumnae Association began
in the fall of 2005. The Seton
Keough Alumnae Association is
just getting off the ground and
is looking for members to help
start its initiatives. The mission
of all three is to keep the spirit
of their individual schools alive
while supporting the needs and
objectives of the school today.
More information on each alumnae
association can be found on the Seton Keough Web site.
