The Legacy of the Golden Circle Society

At Reunion in 1986, F. Marion Tebbetts Wood ‘26 organized a special alumni gathering during the class meeting time and called it the Golden Circle. The group met primarily during Reunion for many years.

In 1997, Norma Walker ‘51, who was serving on the Alumni Board, organized a gathering for alumni living at the Havenwood Heritage Heights Retirement Community in Concord. Barbara Auderer Goodridge ‘34 attended that event and suggested that Norma organize a luncheon at the Cat ‘n’ Fiddle, also in Concord. Walker got an enthusiastic response, and the Golden Circle luncheons were off and running!
