Ecolint Alumni of the Washington D.C. area were treated to a delightful Escalade celebration at the home of Allison Anderson Baca and her husband Kurt Baca. Over 40 alumni and their family attended with alumni ranging from the 50's through the 90's. An excellent cheese fondue dinner, under the direction of head chef Cynthia Richmond, was served. The group enjoyed the breaking of the marmite, a gift from the Alumni Association. Peter Kaplan skillfully led the group in singing traditional Escalade songs from a song sheeted provided by Leigh Henderson for those of us who could not remember the words to the traditional songs.
As to be expected with any gathering of Ecolint alumni, the evening was filled with a sense of camaraderie and reminiscences of our shared Ecolint experience. We are looking forward to next year's Escalade and extend an invitation to all members of the Ecolint family in the area or visiting to join us.
