History
Alumni
Barbeque
2005
For the seventh consecutive year, the traditional History Alumni
Barbeque was held in Dammann-Tenney courtyard, this time on an overcast day,
April 30th. Over 200 people attended, including Peter Rotolo '00,
doing penance for last year's absence, along with sidekick Dan
Buonomo '00, thus
permitting a new "Dan/Pete" photo (in "Chronicle of the Old
Guard"); the
class of '98 was also back in good numbers.
Despite the off-and-on rain we carried on. and even had fun doing it. Another 150 History Department
T-shirts were sold, including the classic ("The Few,
the Proud, the Literate"),
plus the 2005 edition, "Feel The
Power." For the second consecutive
year, the "Afterparty"
followed the main event, till
c. 9 P.M., this time featuring among other things the piano-bar Billy Joel imitation
of Michael Bonavita '98.
The poker tournament was new in 2005.

To get
something grilled, put the Canadians in charge--you too, Bill--
Idaho's almost in Canada, right?

Bill
Foulds & his groupies, including Colorado's own Kin Hayden
(far right). The Pride of Nipigon, Ont. has finally seen the
light & made History his minor, following Kim's lead.
Way to go, Kim! |

Dan
Wynne & Pete Macri, Class of 2000, just like back in the days
of JFK Catholic HS under the guidance of Coach Bob Kasmire (BA,
History, '92) & MVILLE.... |

Rain?
Part of the day...but just something to cope with for the
all-smiles historically-minded troupers. Anyway, the rain
went away. |

Wade
Richardon '05 & History Club President Stephanie Rein '05 helped make it
all happen--& later, the "Canadian graduation
party," too... |

New Tradition: The
stakes of the indoor poker game for those who are warming up for
fall's History Club Poker Tournament. |

Jackie Flynn.

Will
Jason Murfitt (center) be the next Canadian to follow the true
path to History?

History
majors C. J. Heitner & Marshall Green--send in the
clowns? Thanks, Marshall, for your donations to the cause
& good luck in your next poker tournament, not that you need
it....

John
DiBetta (center) makes an unusual use of his new History T-shirt
as he braves the elements. |

F.I.T.
was OK, but J. R. Fallon (center) has seen the light & come home to
Purchase, welcomed by fellow History guys, teammates & friends
Travis Hyatt (left) and Mark Barrer. |

Yes,
Angelina (second from left), we're putting your picture on the website!
You, too, Andy (far right), since you're finally taking some History next
fell.
There's still time to see the light, you know--let A.V. show you. |
