Detroit Alumni,

NAVY FOOTBALL:

Navy just defeated Tulsa 45-17 to make their record 4-1.  That’s after a very exciting win over Air Force last week.  The Air Force game was much closer than the score of 34-25 would indicate.  With Navy leading by 3 points, Air Force with the ball and seconds left, Navy scooped up a fumble and scored.  What a way to seal the Win!!

ARMY- NAVY GAME PARTY:

The info on our Army-Navy game party will be out very soon!  I can tell you this.  The game will be at 3:00 pm on Sat. December 14, and it will probably be at Buffalo Will Wings on Sixteen Mile in Troy.

OCTOBER LUNCH:

Due to our old location in Ann Arbor being closed at lunch time now, we have a new Ann Arbor location.  It will be at Carson’s American Bistro at 2000 Commonwealth Blvd., Ann Arbor MI 48105 on Tuesday, October 22 at 11:30 am.  This location is less than a quarter of a mile west of our old location.  Although the address is on Commonwealth, you can enter it from Plymouth Rd.  As usual, please email with an RSVP if possible, but last minute arrivals are fine.

LAST MONTH’S LUNCH:

We had a nice crowd of 16 for our thank you lunch for Mike Bennett and Joe Walsh for their many years of service as B&G Area Coordinators.  Now it is Mike Johnson’s turn.

Good luck, Mike.
