Sunday May 20th was a very special day at St. Augustine's as 9 of our Hounds received First Communion and/or Confirmation rights. Congratulations Hounds.

Our May "Spring Fling" Weekend began Friday evening with the Class of 2007 meeting in St. Augustine's for their induction into the Notre Dame Alumni Association.

The ceremony began with a blessing from our own Father Tubale.

The Class of 1997 had their 10 year reunion this weekend as well. It was awesome to see our Hounds back on campus. A few of the guys (and spouses) joined the Class of '07 at the ceremony.

President David Howie was the Master of Ceremonies for the event.

Alumni Association President Dale Rondeau spoke to the Hounds about what it means to be a Hound for life. Dale then presented each graduate with a ND Alumni crest and a certificate.

After a short ceremony in the church it was off to the archives for a "meet & greet". The Class of '97 meets the Class of '07

Hounds of all ages were able to share their love of Notre Dame on this special night.

The Class of 1957 also had their reunion this past weekend. Ron Rajotte from '57 passes on some sound advice for the young Hounds

This was a great evening for the Hounds. Yesterday and today sharing stories and their love for Notre Dame.
