On December 28, 1895, approxi- mately 30 graduates and students who had attended classes in the Old Academy assembled in the chapel and founded the Albany Academy Alumni Association. Since that meet- ing 79 years ago, the Association has grown with the school - total member- ship now exceeds 2,000. The Associa- tion has seen the Academy move to its present site 119313, and has seen the sports complex erected 619655 to pro- vide each student with a planned day of education and sport necessary to develop the boy's character. The Alumni Association meets nine times a year. Three meetings are din- ner meetings and six are early morning meetings at school. The Alumni Asso- ciation judges all military eventsg sponsors the Midwinter Dinner, After- Guidon Social, and Annual Dinner in the spring: publishes the Alumni Quarterly: helps with various athletic events by selling tickets and sponsors athletic events for both alumni and students, and presents awards such as the Distinguished Alumni Award. In addition this year for the first time, under the leadership of President Ken Boyton, the Association co-sponsored Homecoming in the fall and conducted alumni dinners in New York and Bos- ton. Throughout the year, various Alumni Association committees advise and help the school in different areas of concern. Executive Alumni Secretary The Fathers' Association was formed as the representative of all fathers who have boys attending the Albany Acad- emy. The Association does whatever is deemed necessary to assist the Head- master and Board of Trustees in the running of the school. This year the Fathers' Association donated money to the school for two purposes: to resur- face the Field House area and to improve the Art Department. In addi- tion the Association sponsored such annual affairs as the Family Barbecue and the Sports dinners. The Board of Directors of the Fathers' Association, headed by Mr.- Sanford B. Levin, meets once every month and the Association itself holds three open meetings every year. At these meetings, the fathers discuss topics of interest to all school fathers and are addressed by a speaker from outside the Academy . In general, the Fathers' Association provides help whenever it is needed by the Headmaster and the various Departments of the school, such as collecting tickets at sports events. The Association is available for help at all school events. Fathe YQ. -11? M W , s-.,. li!! U if' I! lux The-Mahefs' Association has been quite busy this year under the leader- ship of President Mrs. Warren Sherley. The format for both the fall and spring meetings was changed. The first Life Member Luncheon was held in the But- tery for those life members from the most recent graduating class. The first Past President's luncheon was held and was attended by ten past presidents of the Association. With the formulation of an expanded Middle School, it was felt that a Middle School Representa- tive should be added to the Board of Directors of the Association. This will take effect during the coming year. The Mother's Association also added an Exchange for school clothing and military equipment to the numerous services it provides for the school dur- ing the year. The Mothers' Association assisted the Alumni and the Fathers in the Homecoming activities, and held the first joint board meeting with the Fathers' Association. Of course the Mothers' Association provided hospitality for school activi- ties such as Parent's Night, Open House, Entrance Examinations and Competitive Drill. The year's Card Party had An Afternoon of Looking Back as its theme. The Hockey Equipment Exchange was quite suc- cessful as usual. In addition, the Mothers' Association provided the school with money for scholarship aid, faculty study, improvement of Chapel accoustics, funding of Chapel pro- grams, and parking lot improvements. other:
