Old Grovian Tour Reunion Dinner
On Saturday 11th November it was fantastic to welcome over 100 Old Grovians, former staff and current staff to a Tour Reunion Dinner. The event was meant to be an informal affair where old friends could catch up and reminisce on tour stories and stories from school days. I think it achieved this aim. We had representation from across the decades with members of the 1987 Zimbabwe tour – the first major overseas tour – through to the 2015 South Africa Rugby tour. As Chair I was pleased to say a few words and lead the attendees in a Heads and Tails game based on some tour stories. Congratulations to Jen Peachey (nee Best) who won!
I must record my thanks to the Woodhouse Grove staff team who made this event possible. To Franco Careleo, Shirley O’Boyle and Kevin Grant and the rest of the catering Team, to Hannah Boggie our events manager and to Sam Cadman for liaising with table organisers and providing some fantastic archive material for the tourists to enjoy.
