32 alumni from every decade of the School's history joined the Class of 2008 for the VI Form Alumni Dinner on Sunday night. Buzz Speakman '38, who is celebrating his 70th reunion and helped plant the magnificent beech tree on the front lawn, gave the blessing.

Trustee Hick Rowland '58 was the keynote speaker and told the soon-to-be-newest SAS alumni, "This is our school. It is the responsibility of each and every one of us, every alumnus, to make St. Andrew's the best school possible. Stay involved with your classmates, with other St. Andreans in whatever city or town you find yourself. Support the Annual Fund—your participation really does count."

Following this appeal to the soon-to-be graduates, Mr. Rowland challenged the Class of 2008 to achieve 100% class participation in next year's Annual Fund. He was then joined by fellow classmate Steve Washburne to represent this year's 50th Reunion Class, and Jackie Mette, Jill Rogers and John Austin, from the Class of 1983, to represent the 25th Reunion Class. Together they presented each VI Form boy with an "old School tie" and each VI Form girl with a St. Andrew's cross charm, which they will wear at Commencement next Sunday.
