Palmer Society Sapphire and Diamond Anniversary
Eighty-Five Years of Palmer Sisterhood Celebrated

October 21, 2006


 

Palmer sisters gathered on a beautiful Fall morning to celebrate the eighty-fifth anniversary our beloved society. It was wonderful to see so many of our sisters, over 100 in attendance, representing eight decades of Palmer Pride. In addition to catching up with our classmates, we traded stories of our respective times as a Palmer actives on the Poet campus, took many, many pictures, and laughed and shared in our joy of being Palmer girls.  Kudos to our active sisters for looking so sharp and being such gracious hostesses.

In addition, the Palmer Society is truly grateful to Whittier College President, Dr. Sharon Herzberger, for opening her home, Wardman House, for our anniversary event.  Her hospitality genuinely helped to make our day even more memorable.  Further, we thank Palmer parents, Mike and Vickie Roy for providing us with shuttle service for the event, taking pictures, and continually supporting our active sisters in their goals.

Finally, congratulations to our Anniversary Homecoming Committee– Chair Bobbie Roy, Jasmin Kamel, and  Jessie Carlson on a job well done.  From venue to slide show to lovely champagne flutes to commemorate the day, you thought of everything!
