Reunion Weekend 2016

REUNION WEEKEND springside chestnut hill academy

MAY 6&7

Dear CHA Alumni and Springside Alumnae, For some of us, it seems like yesterday that we were walking (or running) down the halls of Springside and CHA, receiving our diplomas and beginning our journey into adulthood.

For others, it seems like a lifetime ago. Whether it’s your 5th or your 50th reunion, our experiences on Cherokee and Willow Grove are a bond we will share forever. They have helped shape us into the adults we are today.

On May 6th and 7th, we look forward to welcoming you back to campus for Reunion Weekend.

This is a wonderful opportunity to visit the school, reunite with old friends, and share memories and stories. From the historic Wissahickon Inn and the creative maker spaces of the Sands Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership to the phenomenal new athletic fields shared by our boys’ and girls’ teams, we know that you will find many new things to discover and many old things to rediscover. A variety of educational, social, and sporting events are planned for Reunion Weekend. We hope that you will be able to join us, and we look forward to seeing you in May.
