Canadian Universities Alumni Reception in New York

November 7, 2017


Greetings fellow alumni!

My name is Leah McNally and I’m a proud Class of 2007 Bachelor of Recreation Management graduate and in May of this year, I became a Director on the Acadia Alumni Association. As part of this volunteer role, I am happy to assist the Alumni Affairs staff with coordinating events in the NYC area. With this in mind, I am pleased to tell you about an upcoming event being offered by the Canadian Association of New York (CANY) that Acadia University is sponsoring with the help of your Alumni Association. This reception will be taking place on Tuesday, November 7 at the Penn Club of New York and it will be an opportunity to meet other Canadian alumni and celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday.  Because Acadia is sponsoring this event, our alumni will be charged a reduced rate of $45.  For more information or to register, please see below. I understand that in the past this event has sold out quickly so get your tickets soon!

Many thanks and I hope you can join me at the Penn Club on November 7th!
