Yesterday was a great day! The return of "Welcome to the Neighborhood" event were we have the chance to meet new Alumni who moved to SF recently and reconnect with other local Alumni/friends.

We had a pre-game meet up at Underdogs Cantina and had perfect weather for watching the Giants play!

Our great day was capped off with a UConn football win! Several of us were watching the game on our phone during the Giants game.

Looking forward, we plan on having UConn basketball game watches (games TBD), likely a Warriors game in 2023, and the annual career related Elevate program.

Hope to see you all soon!
