The annual reunion of the Alumni
of the University of Kentucky held
June 29, 1926 was probably one of
the best in the history of the Alumni
Association. The day was filled with
interesting events beginning with
breakfast in the morning and ending
with a trip to Dix River dam and din
ner at Shakertown. Representatives
from almost every graduating class
since the '90's were present.
The first event on the day's pro
gram was a breakfast which was
held in the Art Center of the univer
sity.
