GargAlum: Alumni of the University of Michigan's Humor Magazine tag:www.gargalum.com,2009-01-14://2 2009-10-27T04:51:23Z Illustrious Alumni of the University of Michigan's Humor Magazine Movable Type Pro 4.23-en Garg's First 100th! tag:www.gargalum.com,2009://2.14 2009-10-27T04:39:32Z 2009-10-27T04:51:23Z Kris the Penn State Phroth (also 100 years old!) also showed up to the party.

It started with brunch at Cottage Inn on Friday and culminated in the traditional Saturday Night Special (as usual, completed on Saturday morning instead of night).  Along the way were visits to the Gargoyle exhibits in the Bentley Historical Library and the Grad Library in Ann Arbor, the traditional banquet, and an art auction.

The current Gargoyle staff has posted the 2009 GargAlum Saturday Night Special over on their website.  Go check it out if you didn't manage to grab a copy while you were in A2!  We'll also post a copy of the PDF here in the next few days.

If anyone got photos at any of the events or panels, please send them to me at gargalum AT gmail DOT com or comment with a link to them.  I'd love to post them here.

So if you'd like to register, please print and mail the form the June 2009 edition of the newsletter with your check.

And remember, the price for registration will be going up monthly as we approach the event.  The later you register, the more it will cost.  Register early!
