A Warm and Festive Evening at the Halifax Holiday Reception

On Tuesday, December 9, the Acadia community gathered at Ashburn Golf Club in Halifax for a joyful evening of celebration at this year’s Halifax Holiday Reception. The space was filled with warm conversation as guests, spanning several generations, came together to toast the holidays.

GOLD (Graduates of the Last Decade) alumni certainly answered the call in full attendance adding to the lively conversation and holiday cheer.

The gathering offered a heartfelt reminder of the gift that Acadia and the alumni community are and how much it means to us to come together at this time of year.

It was a perfect start to the festive season.
