USNA Out members Joe Soto ’83 and Steve Clark Hall ’75 attended the USNA President’s Circle Weekend events in Annapolis. This is the second President’s Circle weekend where representatives from USNA Out have attended.The three day event hosted by the USNA Foundation was held in Annapolis.
The U.S. Naval Academy Foundation welcomes the opportunity each year to celebrate and recognize the contributions of its leading donors. President’s Circle Weekend is just one way in which the Academy has the privilege of saying “thank you.”
The event gave USNA Out members an opportunity to meet and mingle with others whose commitment to the U.S. Naval Academy is proven by their generosity. Along with hearing about the state of the Academy from the Superintendent and his leadership staff, there was a packed weekend agenda of festivities.
All USNA Out members who have the financial resources to become a member of the USNA Foundation President’s Circle are strongly encouraged to do so. By attending events such as the President’s Circle weekend, we demonstrate that our commitment to excellence at the academy is as strong as our contemporaries. And by doing so, we put a very positive face on who we really are here at USNA Out.
What a great opportunity!
Like Joe, I strongly encourage USNA Out members who have the financial resources to join the President’s Circle. Not only do they (the foundation) treat you to an action packed weekend, by mingling with the other members of the President’s Circle (many parents of mids, and many retired senior officers) we really felt that we put a very positive face on who we are.
