Alumni Weekend: May 12-13, 2023

Alumni Day is the perfect day for all alumni to be on campus and catch up. This is a very special year, as the Taft community will honor Pam and Willy MacMullen ’78 for their years of service to Taft on Saturday night, May 13. Come celebrate with us!

Registration for Alumni Weekend opens in early spring. You will receive an invitation with user-friendly instructions to sign up for events.

Is the Registration Fee considered a gift to the Taft Fund?
The registration fee goes toward food and beverage, transportation and entertainment costs for the weekend and is not considered a gift to the Taft Fund.
 
Gifts made to the Taft Fund are used exclusively to support Taft’s operating budget. That means they pay for books in the library; soccer balls, hockey pucks, and baseball bats; a favorite teacher’s salary; paint brushes, pianos and pottery clay; petri dishes in the chemistry lab, and microscopes for biology; the budget for The Papyrus; the cost of a DJ for a Saturday night dance; and much, much more! Your gift will count for the class gift and participation totals. The Taft Fund closes June 30.

View class-specific activities, and suggested hotels when selecting your class on the right sidebar. A full and final schedule and attendee lists will be posted in the spring, so we recommend checking back often.

While we do not offer babysitting, reunions are the perfect time for Tafties to share their experience with the entire family, and we will have activities for everyone, big and small Rhinos!

If you’d like to explore the area note there are not many Uber/Lyft options so we recommend car rental. The school provides group transportation from hotels to larger events on campus.

While the weather mid-May is usually beautiful, it is New England and so you may experience four seasons in one day! Pack a rain jacket or an umbrella and a pair of comfortable shoes. Reunion events are indoors and outdoors and you will enjoy walking around campus and our beautiful grounds. The traditional Saturday morning parade is outside, a leisurely walk from Main Circle to Mac Quad (weather permitting). Staff will be available during the parade with golf carts should you need assistance.
