Other• A few of the P alums in the
Midwest have talked about having an informal get together at a location that is central to all of us. For the alumni located outside of so-cal, this is really something that we miss out on.
• Family events• Family picnics• Food/ alcohol tastings• Group discounts to shows -
i.e. Ahmanson• Lunch• Travel events (exp. Whale
watching, SB wine tour?)
