Young Alumni Hit the Ice

January 18, 2011

Over 30 recent graduates gathered at City Ice Pavilion in Long Island City for a night of food, fun and ice skating as part of the most recent Young Alumni Seasonal Socials event.

The friendly atmosphere made this a fun winter gathering for all of the alumni, from first-time skaters to ice-skating regulars. Some guests had not gone ice skating in years and enjoyed the opportunity to get back on the ice.

“This event was a great way for me to relive my childhood,” said Christina Hardial ’06C. “I felt just like a kid again when I started skating, and I’m so glad I was able to share that experience with my St. John’s friends.”

In addition to skating, the young alumni had the opportunity to catch up with one another over pizza and beverages. Guests also received a St. John’s fleece headband, which many wore as they took to the ice.

The next Young Alumni event will be a Happy Hour this Wednesday, January 20, at Manhattan’s trendy Apotheke. Be sure to check out all of our events throughout the year designed specifically for recent graduates.
