A Note from the Class Treasurer:

I hope you’re already starting to set your plans for our 60th Reunion…in Hanover!...June 15-18, 2026. The Committee, led by Al Keiller and Budge Gere, has already started putting together the specifics, as noted in the most recent newsletter.

Class dues are the major revenue source to provide for a free reunion for all classmates plus a contribution to the costs for Dartmates. The Executive Committee just voted to hold class dues at $66 with an optional $34 towards class projects ($100 total). Class dues, even though they are tax deductible, are different from contributions to the Dartmouth College Fund. They are totally managed by our Class and enable us to continue our own programs and activities.

Our projects for 2025-26 include funds for a recruited athlete to visit the campus through the Athletic Sponsors Program and for memorial books provided to Baker Library in memory of our deceased classmates. This year we will add $5,000 to the Class of 1966 Scholarship Fund, an endowment that provides financial aid to our Class of 1966 Scholar, and provide $5,000 to support the Pine Park Foundation, which oversees the trails, plantings, and other maintenance for the Park that was established north of the campus on part of the former Hanover Country Club. Dues also finance our award-winning newsletters, website, $66 gift cards for hosts of 66th Night get-togethers, and help defray part of the costs of our Homecoming Mini-Reunion October 10-11 vs. Yale.

More and more classmates now pay an amount over the “suggested” $34 for class projects in order to maximize their tax deduction for charitable donations. I hope you will consider doing the same so that we may gradually increase the level of new contributions to our endowment legacy, the Class of 1966 Scholarship Fund.

You can make your payment easily on-line at www.dartmouth66.org by clicking the “Dues” button and following the instructions for PayPal/Credit Card payments on the lead page. This allows you to pay either by credit card or via a PayPal account. Or you can send a check made out to “The Class of 1966”, and mail it to PO Box 1127, Newtown, PA 18940.

Last year we received dues payments from 284 classmates and widows. Our goal is to maintain that same number this year. Thanks for your continued support of the great Class of 1966. I look forward to seeing you at Homecoming in Hanover, October 10-11.

Sincerely,
Bob Serenbetz
Class Treasurer
