Club Events Calendar

 

 

The Harvard Club in Maine wishes you a very Happy New Year! 

 

It was great to meet many of you last year at our events and we look forward to seeing you again at our upcoming events this year.  We have about one event every month now, and we hope that you will have the time and interest to attend more events, which now are increasingly varied in scope and location.  And if there is something you would like to do with fellow alums that is not on our Calendar, we are eager to hear your suggestions, and we always encourage our members to lead our events (including the ones below).  Our paid membership has increased to 128 as of today, so many more of you are supporting us in our activities now!

 

Here is our current Club Events Calendar.  We will update and re-post this periodically.
